Today, this old green tractor quickly turned my world to blue
It really plowed me under with this goodbye note from you,
The rising sun stopped shining, and left me sitting here
With an early morning heartbreak souvenir.
At the breaking of the dawn, I learned our love was gone
From this letter on the tractor seat you coldly laid it on,
Who could have expected, you’d leave me so dejected
Just staring at a John Deere Dear John.
I know I had it coming 'cause I stayed out way too late
Those nights of playing poker with my buddies sealed my fate,
But fools like me don't notice, what should be crystal clear
"Til it hits us like this heartache laying here.
At the breaking of the dawn, I learned our love was gone
From this letter on the tractor seat you coldly laid it on,
Who could have expected, you’d leave me so dejected
Just staring at a John Deere Dear John.
It’s as icy as the tractor seat
You coldly laid it on,
You left me frozen solid with
Your John Deere Dear John.
