Housemartins - Me & The Farmer lyrics

Me and the farmer get on fine<br>Through stormy weather and bottles of wine<br>If I pull my weight he'll treat me well<br>But if I'm late he'll give me hell<br>And thought it's all hard work no play<br>Farmer is a happy crook<br>Jesus hates him everyday<br>'cause jesus gave and farmer took<br><br>{won't he let you go? } probably no<br>{won't he let you go? } probably no<br>{why does he treat you so? } I just don't know<br>{why does he treat you so? } I just don't know<br>Me and the farmer like brother, like sister<br>Getting on like hand and blister<br>Me and the farmer<br><br>He's chpped down shppe, planted trees<br>And helped the countryside to breathe<br>Ripped up fields, bullied flocks<br>And workded his workers right around the clock<br><br>It may seem strange but he'd admit<br>Intentions aren't exactlly true<br>And through God loves his wife a bit<br>He hates the farmer through and through<br><br>{won't he let you go? } probably no<br>{won't he let you go? } probably no<br>{why does he treat you so? } I just don't know<br>{why does he treat you so? } I just don't know<br>Me and the farmer like brother, like sister<br>Getting on like hand and blister<br>Me and the farmer<br><br>All things bright and beautiful<br>All creatures gr3eat and small<br>All we've got is london zoo<br>'cause farmer owns them all
