         D                   G
Well I heard he needed some help on the farm
     A                     D
Somebody with a truck and two strong arms
                        A                        G   
Not scared of dirt and willin' to work till the sun goes down
            
   D                     G
So I pulled up and said I'm your man
           A                D
I could start right now and we shook hands
He said the fence needs fixin',
      A                           G
the peaches need pickin' And the cows need bringin round
                   
       D                    
I was haulin' hay, I was feedin' the hogs
          A                       
and that summer sun had me sweatin' like a dog
       Em
So I cooled off in the creek
             G                  A
then it was back to work in the dag gum heat
       D                        
I was cussin' out loud, thinkin' bout quitin'
 A                  
Lookin' back now I'm sure glad I didn't
     Em                             D/F#                                
Cuz just when i thought it couldn't get no hotter
G                       A               D  A
I caught glimpse of the farmer's daughter

         D                       G
She was just gettin' home from Panama city
         A                D
She was all tanned up and my kinda pretty
When her eyes met mine
       A                          G   G/F#   Em
I was thinkin' that I would sure love  my   job
         D                   G
As the days got shorter our talks got longer
     A                          D
The kisses got sweeter and the feelings got stronger
        D                         A
So we'd hop in the truck and get all tangled up
      G       G/F#   Em
Every chance   we    got
  
         D
We were down by the river all night long
         A
When the sun came up I was sneakin' her home
     Em
And draggin' my butt to work
           G                  A
With the smell of her perfume on my shirt
       D      
I'd be on the tractor she'd be on my mind
           A
With that sun beatin' down on this back of mine
    Em                             D/F#                                
Cuz just when i thought it couldn't get no hotter
   G                     A              Em
I fell in love with the farmer's daughter

                      A
We got married last spring
Em                                       A
Woah and there ain't no better life for me

         D                          
Im still haulin' hay and feedin' the hogs
         A
And that summer suns has me sweatin' like a dog
      Em
So I cool off in the creek
          G                        A
And she brings me outta glass of sweet ice tea
   D
Im on the tractor and shes on my mind
       A
And I cant wait til its quittin' time
     Em                             D/F#                                
Cuz just when i thought it couldn't get no hotter
G                   A              D  A

                    D       A   D
