​
I'm sick of sucking diesel on this old farm of mine
I'm gonna sell her cheap me boys and have a good old time
The tractor's up on done deal the farm's on buy and sell
The cow's ate all me silage and the weather's gone to hell.

Chorus
Ah give us seventy eighty or ninety grand
Come on me boys put up your hands
She's on the market at ninety two
Stand on Leonard ? she's with you
Ninety eight now fill her up
Ninety nine you'll get some luck
A hundred grand the hammer's down
Well done Leonard you bought me ground.

I'm gonna get meself a twin cam
The Massey's out the door
You'll hear me burning rubber
With me foot flat to the floor
You'll find me on Twitter 
Snap Chat Facebook and the lot
Taking funny selfies with this new Iphone that I got.

[Repeat Chorus]

I'm waiting on a bit of sub ? to land in the bank 
But the taxman's got his eye on it, Oh Lord but he's the plank ?
So I'm hanging up the wellies and heading for the sun
I'm gonna party hard lads 'till all this money's gone.

[Repeat Chorus]
