[Verse 1] I drove my tractor through your haystack last night (Ooh ar ooh ar) I threw me pitch fork at your dog to keep quiet (Ooh ar ooh ar) Now somethin's tellin' me, that you'm avoidin' me (Ooh ar ooh ar) Come on now darlin' you got somethin' I need
[Verse 2] She made I laugh, haha I'll stick by you I'll give you all that ya need (Ooh ar ooh ar) We'll have twins and triplets I'm a man built for speed (Ooh ar ooh ar) And you know I'll love ya darlin' so give me your hand (Ooh ar ooh ar) But the thing I want the most is all the acres of land
[Chorus] 'Cause I've got a brand new combine harvester and I'll give you the key Come on now let's get together in perfect harmony I got 20 acres and you got 43 Now I've got a brand new combine harvester and I'll give you the key
[Verse 3] Phwoar, she's a lovely bit of stuff 'n' all For seven long years I've been alone in this place (Ooh ar ooh ar) Pigs sleep in the kitchen, it's a proper disgrace (Ooh ar ooh ar) Now if I cleaned it up would ya change our mind (Ooh ar ooh ar) I'll give up drinkin' scrumpy and that lager and lime
[Chorus] 'Cause I've got a brand new combine harvester and I'll give you the key Come on now, let's get together in perfect harmony I got 20 acres and you got 43 Now I've got a brand new combine harvester and I'll give you the key
[Verse 4] Who loves ya baby, HA Weren't we a grand couple at that last wurzel dance I wore brand new gaiters and me corduroy pants In your new sunday dress with your perfume smellin' grand We had our photos taken, us holding hands
[Chorus] Now I've got a brand new combine harvester and I'll give you the key Now that we'm both past our 50s I think that you and me Should stop this galivanting and will you marry me 'Cause I've got a brand new combine harvester and I'll give you the key
[Outro] Arrr, you're a fine lookin' woman and I can't wait to get me hands on your land!

In this song, a farmer unsuccessfully tries to court a woman on an adjoining farm, though he seems more interested in the farmland than the woman herself. Unfortunately, it seems all he really has to bring to the relationship is his new combine harvester.
