Hay Hardships

I wake up in the morning
To a hot and dry spring day,
Jump into the tractor
I’m off and away.

Up, back, up, back
Driving the liner rake,
Round and round, round and round
Not a single break.

Hay time is so tiring
As it’s long and very hot,
The stupid flies: worse than ever
Where is that fly swat?

Mum calls me on the radio
Which causes a mistake,
I forgot to lower the liner
Oh! For goodness sake!

I drive back to the start
What a blooming pain,
I have to do it all again
Quick! Before it rains!

Up, back, up, back
Driving the liner rake,
Round and round, round and round
Not a single break.

The day is finally over
And I receive my well-earned pay,
The sun slowly fades away
The end of hard work day.
