Mr. Farmer Lyrics
[Verse 1]
See the farmer on the other side of town
He's always workin' hard 'til the sun goes down
He's up every mornin' right on five
A-wantin' green seeds just to come alive
But he don't wear no farm clothes
He's always usin' a rake and hoe
But his seeds are startin' to grow
Like a big stalk up through the sky
[Verse 2]
He used to live in an apartment in a big old city
With thick and priestly windows built right in
But he decided to move to a little tiny town
He wanna be a farmer for all year round
And on a country road where you can't see a thing
He's got five acres filled with little green things
He said he's workin' so hard all night and day
[Chorus]
Mr. Farmer, let me watch your crops
Mr. Farmer, let me water your crops
Mr. Farmer, let me harvest your crops
I wanna have a dream come true
I said a farmer, farmer, farmer
I wanna be just like you
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
See the farmer a-walkin' downtown
Always draws a crowd when he's around
He's always wearin' seedy clothes
He shows them off wherever he goes
You can spot him anywhere
Got a bright pink thumb but he don't care
I said, he looks like something from a very bad dream
[Chorus]
Mr. Farmer, let me watch your crops
Mr. Farmer, let me water your crops
Mr. Farmer, let me harvest your crops
Mr. Farmer, let me save your crops
I said, a farmer, farmer, farmer, farmer, farmer
