Richie Kavanagh A Ferguson Tractor
Di ya remember the little Ferguson tractor Johnny?
The were a great little yoke you start an I'll join in,
….
Oh I am a little Ferguson built so many years ago
I was bought up in Dublin at the RDS spring show
I'm a lovely little tractor and I look so very cute
Not like the tractor of today that great big ugly brute
….
Well they brought me home to Fenagh in the county of Carlow
And the first man to drive me was mickey's uncle joe
He put on his top coat and he jumped upon me sate
Pulled back on the throttle and he flew out through the gate
….
Oh I am a little Ferguson built so many years ago
I was bought up in Dublin at the RDS spring show
I'm a lovely little tractor and I look so very cute
Not like the tractor of today that great big ugly brute
….
All the auld lads started laughing and jeering now you see
They said that auld black jackass was far better now then me
But the jackass he is long since dead his bones has turned to dust
Here am I freshly painted would nare a speck a rust
….
Oh I am a little Ferguson built so many years ago
I was bought up in Dublin at the RDS spring show
I'm a lovely little tractor and I look so very cute
Not like the tractor of today that great big ugly brute
….
Oh where have all the years gone by I'm parked here in the shed
Poor auld uncle joe is inside crippled in the bed
But every september until the man is dead
He'll grab his little walking aid an he'll head up for the shed
….
Oh I am a little Ferguson built so many years ago
I was bought up in Dublin at the RDS spring show
I'm a lovely little tractor and I look so very cute
Not like the tractor of today that great big ugly brute
….
He'll check me oil and water he'll shine and polish me
Then he'll bring me down to Fenagh for everyone to see
They'll put him sitting on me sate he looks so very proud
As he drives me through the steam rally to the cheering of the crowed
….
Oh I am a little Ferguson built so many years ago
I was bought up in Dublin at the RDS spring show
I'm a lovely little tractor and I look so very cute
Not like the tractor of today that great big ugly brute
Not like the tractor of today that great big ugly brute
