G                                    Cadd9

D                                      Cadd9              G                  
He hops off with them movie stars and thinks he’s got It made.
G                                    Cadd9       
But if he gets into a bind he can’t count on all them actors
D                                   Cadd9                 G              
I’ve got all the back I need cause I’ve got friends with tractors


CHORUS
Cadd9                       G
They’ll grow the groceries, haul the load
D                   G    
Pull you out then fix the road
Cadd9                    G
They’re good at slowing speeders down
D
When they pass through from out of town
Cadd9         G                  D                    Em7
I live out in the country, happily ever after
Cadd9       G                        D                   G
I’ve got everything I need, cause I got friends with tractors


Come Friday night we hit the woods
To go bogging in our trucks
And it’s just about a guarantee some good ole boy’ll get stuck
But where I come from you can bet your butt a mudhole aint a factor
I’ll sink mine to the floorboards cause I’ve got friends with tractors


CHORUS
Cadd9                       G
They’ll grow the groceries, haul the load
D                   G    
Pull you out then fix the road
Cadd9                    G
They’re good at slowing speeders down
D
When they pass through from out of town
Cadd9         G                  D                    Em7
I live out in the country, happily ever after
Cadd9       G                        D                   G
I’ve got everything I need, cause I got friends with tractors


Them fancy five star restaurants will leave you barely fed
They charge you for the water, the butter, and the bread.
Their gourmet meal looks more to me like fish bait on a cracker
But I’ll stay fat and happy cause I’ve got friends with tractors


CHORUS
Cadd9                       G
They’ll grow the groceries, haul the load
D                   G    
Pull you out then fix the road
Cadd9                    G
They’re good at slowing speeders down
D
When they pass through from out of town
Cadd9         G                  D                    Em7
I live out in the country, happily ever after
Cadd9       G                        D                   G
I’ve got everything I need, cause I got friends with tractors


G                                
When snow piles up on lanbow field, don’t
Cadd9
Worry bout them packers
D                                D                       Cadd9           G
