[Verse 1]
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 gi-i-ve me hell

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And though it's all hard work, no play
Farmer is a happy crook
Jesus hates him every day
'Cause Jesus gave and farmer took, 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 the farmer, like brother, like sister
Getting on like hand and blister
Me and the farmer...

[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus 2]
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, through

[Chorus]

[Pre-Chorus 3]
All things bright and beautiful
All creatures great and small
All we've got is London Zoo
'Cause farmer owns them all, all

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Me and the farmer
Me and the farmer...
