Prompt / Lyrics
(Verse 1) Well, I woke up early on a Saturday morn’, My boots were muddy, and my pants were torn, Went outside for a little fresh air, And what did I see? Well, I just stood and stared— My tractor was rollin’ down the hill, With my sweet darlin’ holdin’ on for a thrill, I yelled, "Come back!" but she just waved, Guess I lost ‘em both—what a day I’ve had! (Chorus) My tractor ran off with my wife, oh no, Guess love and diesel really stole the show, She said she needed a little more speed, Now she’s shiftin’ gears while I watch and grieve! (Verse 2) I tried to chase ‘em in my pickup truck, But I hit a pothole—man, just my luck, My hound dog laughed, my rooster cried, Even the scarecrow said, "Man, that’s fried!" They’re headin’ to Vegas or maybe to the fair, With John Deere power and wind in her hair, I still got my banjo and a jug of shine, Who needs true love when I got moonshine? (Chorus) My tractor ran off with my wife, oh no, Guess love and diesel really stole the show, I shoulda known when she changed the oil, That green machine made her blood boil! (Bridge) Maybe one day she’ll come back home, When the engine dies, and she’s all alone, But ‘til that day, I’ll dance and sing, A broken heart ain't a bad ol’ thing! (Chorus – Big Finish) My tractor ran off with my wife, oh no, Guess love and diesel really stole the show, If you see a lady on a bright green ride, Tell her I’m here with my wounded pride! (Outro – Spoken) And if she wants to drag race… well, I still got my lawnmower!
