Farmer John's daughter's messing with my sleep
Oh, Lordy, all want to do is weep
From the break of day until the sun goes down
I gotta keep dragging this load around
I got a heavy thing for her
I sure got a heavy thing for her
She says 'Meet me up behind the barn
I'll bring a blanket, honey, you bring the yarn'
If her daddy catch us we'll be in disgrace
The Devil himself is in her daddy's face
I got a heavy thing for her
I sure got a heavy thing for her
We do the dove and the oop oop pa doo
The frog, the pony and the grasshopper, too
The heidi-ho and the old wheelbarrow
She makes love like there's no tomorrow
I got a heavy thing for her
I sure got a heavy thing for her
