Tractor Tragedy

(Verse 1)
Out in the fields where the wheat grows high,
Underneath that Oklahoma sky,
I left my tractor by the old oak tree,
But when I came back, it wasn't there to see.

(Chorus)
Somebody stole my tractor, left me in despair,
Tracks in the dirt, but they lead to nowhere.
Out in the darkness, under that moon so bright,
Somebody stole my tractor in the dead of night.

(Verse 2)
Was it a rival farmer with a grudge to bear?
Or just a kid with a wild, reckless dare?
I searched the county, every road and lane,
But my green John Deere, it never came again.

(Bridge)
Now the fields lie fallow, the work's undone,
But I won't rest until justice is won.
I'll keep on searching, I'll follow every lead,
Till my stolen tractor's back where it should be.

(Verse 3)
In every shadow, in every town I roam,
I'll keep on looking till I bring it home.
For that tractor's more than just metal and steel,
It's the heart of my farm, it's how I feel.

(Chorus)
Somebody stole my tractor, left me in despair,
Tracks in the dirt, but they lead to nowhere.
Out in the darkness, under that moon so bright,
Somebody stole my tractor in the dead of night.

(Outro)
So if you see it, rolling down the road,
With someone else driving, with a heavy load,
Tell 'em it's mine, and it's time to pay,
For somebody stole my tractor, and they'll answer one day.


Tell 'em it's mine, and it's time to pay,
For somebody stole my tractor, and they'll answer one day.
