Her Big Yellow Back-hoe

They got high beam smiles
And twinkles in their eyes
They're big men, with big hearts
Drivin’ little red pick-up trucks
Little red pick-up trucks
Little red pick-up trucks

It’s a funny old world that we live in
Everything seems out of time,
if we let it
But just look for rainbows in gasoline
Cause everything is divine

She’s hip to the trick
She's got her brains and muscles
She’s small, but she's quick
And she’s shwangin' her
big yellow back-hoe
Shwangin’ her big yellow back-hoe
Shwangin’ her big yellow back-hoe

I met a rooster one day
He was climbing a tree
And that night he woke me
When he cocka-doodle-dood
at the moon
He cocka-doodle-dood
at the moon and the stars
He cocka-doodle-dood
at the moon

She’s kinda frumpy in her plaid shirt
And her overalls
But she’s gonna wear
a periwinkle dress
When she’s a big old bridesmaid
She’s gonna be
a big old bridesmaid
She’s the big old bridesmaid
