Friends With Tractors
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I sat beside a man from Hollywood, California on a plane
He said he had rich and famous friends, he liked droppin' names
I said 'Howdy do, that's good for you, I dig a lot of those actors,
But son you ain't got a thing on me, see I got friends with tractors'
They'll grow your groceries, haul a load
Pull you out then fix the road
They're good at slowin' speeders down
When they pass through from out of town
I live out in the country
Happily ever after
I got everything I need
'Cause I got friends with tractors
Come Friday night we hit the woods
Go boggin' in our trucks
It's just about a guarantee
Some good ol' boy gets stuck
Where I come from you can bet your buck
A mud hole ain't a factor
I'll sink mine to the floorboards
'Cause I got friends with tractors
They'll grow your groceries, haul a load
Pull you out then fix the road
They're good at slowin' speeders down
When they pass through from out of town
I live out in the country
Happily ever after
I got everything I need
'Cause I got friends with tractors
Yee haw!
I been to fancy five star restaurants
And I left there barely fed
They charged me for the water
The butter and the bread
That gourmet meal looked more to me
Like fish bait on a cracker
But I'll stay fat and happy
'Cause I got friends with tractors
They'll grow your groceries, haul a load
Pull you out then fix the road
They're good at slowin' speeders down
When they pass through from out of town
We live out in the country
Happily ever after
I got everything I need
'Cause I got friends with tractors
Yeah I got everything I need
'Cause I got friends with tractor-r-r-rs
Yee haw!
Yeah, man, talkin' 'bout
Internationals, and John Deeres
Massey-Fergusons, whatever you got
We don't discriminate
Front end loaders, bushalls, post hole diggers
Need 'em, gotta have 'em
I believe I do know one actor
Is Larry The Cable Guy an actor?
Oh well, he's got a tractor…
