A
I caught a glimpse of the farmer's daughter
Verse2:
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 tangled up
every chance we got
Chorus2:
We were down by the river all night long
when the sun came up I was sneakin her home
and draggin my but 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 that back of mine
just when I though it couldn't get no hotter
I fell in love with the farmers daughter
Bridge:
F#m A
We got married last spring
F#m A
Woah there ain't no better life for me
Chorus3:
I'm still haulin hay, and feedin the hogs
and this summer sun has me sweatin like a dog
so I cool off in the creek
and she brings me out a glass of sweet ice tea
and I'm on the tractor and she's on my mind
and I can't wait til its quitin time
and just when I think it couldn't get no hotter
I come home to the farmer's daugter
E,B,E, B,E
The farmer's daughter
