Tractor Cab Sing Along
Sep 23, 2008
Awhile back
I posted a list I keep during my travels of all the machines on the move that I pass on the Interstates and highways. Well, I keep another list… one of songs that reference farm machinery.
- John Deere Green by Joe Diffie
- International Harvester by Craig Morgan
- She Thinks My Tractor’s Sexy by Kenny Chesney
- Down on the Farm by Tim McGraw
- Amarillo Sky by McBride and the Ride and Jason Aldean
- John Deere Tractor by Larry Sparks and The Judds
- When It All Goes South by Alabama
- Down on the Farm by Michael Peterson
- John Doe on a John Deere by Lonestar
- Like a John Deere by Sawyer Brown
- Daddy Won’t Sell the Farm by Montgomery Gentry
- On Down the Line by Patty Loveless
- Country Ain’t Country by Travis Tritt
- It Came Out of the Sky by Creedence Clearwater Revival
- Cloud Dust by Brad Paisley
I was reminded of this list the other day when a co-worker mentioned the Beach Boys classic, Little Deuce Coupe. He said, why doesn’t anyone do a song about tractors like they did? (Basically just listing the mechanics and features of a 1932 Ford Coupe)
There’s my attempt to rattle off some of my favorites about farm machinery (granted, there are plenty more out there, so please add what you’ll be playing in the grain truck waiting at the elevator this winter…) And I won’t try to write any lyrics, but if you’ve got a tune please share…
