From: GUEST I'm seeking the lyrics for this song which I heard John Haywood sing in Shropshire in the mid 1980s. John was a farmer and he may have written the song, all I can remember is the chorus: Where be the horses? Where be the men? Machinery now rules the day The air's full of diesel The smell of that raw And they do a week's work in a day |
