NEVER SEEN A FARMER ON A BIKE
Recorded by: Jonathan Crisp on Ampersand Music Farm 101

Farmer Palmer was on the other day 'bout the price of his sugar-beet drill.
He reckoned he'd found the little green pound don't pay them big red bills.
Although he's got a private yacht, a race horse and three cars ,
He always say the farm don't pay. That's how them farmers are.

CHORUS: But I've never seen a farmer on a bike
Never seen a farmer on a bike
Wherever I've been, no, I never miss a thing,
But never seen a farmer on a bike

He do complain about the rain, the green fly and the drought.
He say black spot has ruined his crop but I can't work this out.
I've seen him get on a jumbo jet; I've seen him on a train;
But that'll be the day I see him biking down the lane. CHORUS

I worked for farmer till I worked my fingers to the bone,
But when I ask for another pound a week, you should have heard him moan.
Although his combine cost a lot, I'm sure you will agree,
He could dispose of his Volvo and bike around like me. CHORUS
