Me and the farmer get on fine, Through stormy weather and bottles of wine, If I pull my weight he`ll treat me well But if I`m late he`ll give me hell.
And though it`s all hard work no play, Farmer is a happy crook, Jesus hates him everyday, `Cause Jesus gave and farmer took.
Chorus: (Won`t he let you go?) probably no (Won`t he let you go?) probably no (Why does he treat you so?) I just don`t know (Why does he treat you so?) I just don`t know Me and farmer like brother, like sister, Getting on like hand and blister Me and the farmer.
He`s chopped down sheep, planted trees And helped the countryside to breathe Ripped up fields, bullied flocks And worked his workers right around the clock.
It may seem strange but he`d admit Intentions aren`t exactly true And though God loves his wife a bit He hates the farmer through and through.
Chorus.
All things bright and beautiful, All creatures great and small, All we`ve got is London ZOO `Cause farmer owns them all
