Song Lyrics #2

Farmers Daughter

By: Rodney Atkins

Well I heard he needed some help on the farm 

Somebody with a truck and two strong arms 

Not scared of dirt and willin' to work 

till the sun goes down 

So I pulled up and said I'm your man 

I could start right now and we shook hands 

He said the fence needs fixin', 

the peaches need pickin' 

And the cows need bringin round 

I was haulin hay, I was feedin the hogs 

and that summer sun had me sweatin like a dog 

So I cooled off in the creek 

then it was back to work in the daggum heat 

I was cussin' out loud, thinkin bout quitin' 

Lookin' back now I'm sure glad I didn't 

Cuz just when I thought it couldn't get no hotter 

I caught glimpse of the farmer's daughter 

She was just gettin' home from Panama city 

she was all tanned up and my kinda pretty 

When her eyes met mine 

I was thinkin that I would sure love my job 

as the days got shorter our talks got longer 

the kisses got sweeter and the feelings got stronger 

so we'd hop in the truck and get all tagled up 

every chance we got 

we were down by the river all night long 

when the sun came up I was sneakin' her home 

and draggin my butt to work 

with the smell of her perfume on my shirt 

I'd be on the tractor she'd be on my mind 

with that sun beatin' down on this back of mine 

Just when I thought it couldnt get no hotter 

I fell in love with the farmer's daughter 

we got married last spring 

Woah and there ain't no better life for me 

I'm still haulin' hay and feedin' the hogs 

and that summer sun has me sweatin' like a dog 

so I cool off in the creek 

and she brings me outta glass of sweet ice tea 

I'm on the tractor and shes on my mind 

and I can't wait till its quitin' time 

and just when I think it can't get no hotter 

I come home to the farmer's daughter 

Yeah the farmer's daughter
