In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Plowing these fields in the hot summer sun
Over by the gate, lordy here she comes
With a basket full of chicken
And a big cold jug of sweet tea
I make a little room and she climbs on up
I open up the throttle and stir a little dust
Just look at her face, she ain't a foolin' me
She thinks my tractor's sexy
It really turns her on
She's always starin' at me
While I'm chuggin' along
She likes the way it's pulling while we're tillin' up the land
She's even kinda crazy 'bout my farmers tan
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
She thinks my tractor's sexy
We ride back and forth 'til we run out a light
Take it to the barn, put it up for the night
Climb up in the loft, sit and talk with the radio on
She says she's got a dream and I ask what it is
She wants a little farm and a yard full of kids
And one more teeny weenie ride before I take her home
She thinks my tractor's sexy
It really turns her on
She's always starin' at me
While I'm chuggin' along
She likes the way it's pulling while we're tillin' up the land
She's even kinda crazy 'bout my farmers tan
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
She thinks my tractor's sexy
Well, she ain't into cars or pickup trucks
But if it runs like a Deere, man her eyes light up
She thinks my tractor
She thinks my tractor's sexy
It really turns her on
She's always starin' at me
While I'm chuggin' along
She likes the way it's pulling while we're tillin' up the land
She's even kinda crazy 'bout my farmers tan
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
She thinks my tractor's sexy
She thinks my tractor's sexy
She thinks my tractor's sexy
Over by the gate, lordy here she comes
With a basket full of chicken
And a big cold jug of sweet tea
I make a little room and she climbs on up
I open up the throttle and stir a little dust
Just look at her face, she ain't a foolin' me
She thinks my tractor's sexy
It really turns her on
She's always starin' at me
While I'm chuggin' along
She likes the way it's pulling while we're tillin' up the land
She's even kinda crazy 'bout my farmers tan
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
She thinks my tractor's sexy
We ride back and forth 'til we run out a light
Take it to the barn, put it up for the night
Climb up in the loft, sit and talk with the radio on
She says she's got a dream and I ask what it is
She wants a little farm and a yard full of kids
And one more teeny weenie ride before I take her home
She thinks my tractor's sexy
It really turns her on
She's always starin' at me
While I'm chuggin' along
She likes the way it's pulling while we're tillin' up the land
She's even kinda crazy 'bout my farmers tan
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
She thinks my tractor's sexy
Well, she ain't into cars or pickup trucks
But if it runs like a Deere, man her eyes light up
She thinks my tractor
She thinks my tractor's sexy
It really turns her on
She's always starin' at me
While I'm chuggin' along
She likes the way it's pulling while we're tillin' up the land
She's even kinda crazy 'bout my farmers tan
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
She thinks my tractor's sexy
She thinks my tractor's sexy
She thinks my tractor's sexy

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
this song is obviously about having sex.
"'Round these fields in the hot summer sun Over by the gate Lordy here she comes With a basket full of chicken and a big cold jug of sweet tea"
your sitting at the bar or in a restaurant and hook up with the waitress or bartender. then you go back to your place. could be. i know a few guys who have hooked up with hooters girls.
"I make a little room and she climbs on up"
you invite her into bed.
"Open up the throttle and stir a little dust"
foreplay.
"Just look at her face, she ain't a fool to me"
foreplay turned her on and shes ready to go.
CHORUS: "She thinks my tractor's sexy It really turns her on"
his tractor is obviously his penis. he's say that his penis makes her horny.
"She's always starin' at me while I'm chugging along"
shes staring at you while your going down on her.
"She likes the way it's pulling while we're tillin' up the land"
you do her so she orgasms.
"She's even kinda crazy 'bout my farmers tan"
she likes his body but likes how he does her more.
"She's the only one who really understands what gets me... She thinks my tractor's sexy"
hes saying shes the only one who does it for him right now and he does it for her.
"We ride back and forth till we run outta light Take it to the barn, put it up for the night Climb up in the loft, sit and talk with the radio on"
when your done with sex and you sit in bed and talk afterwards, was it good for you, etc.
"She said she's got a dream, and I ask what it is She wants a little farm and a yard full of kids And one more teeny wenny ride before I take her home"
they talk about possibly keeping the relationship going. she tells him she wants kids and shes wants more sex before she goes.
"Well she ain't into cars or pick-up trucks But if it runs like a Deere then her eyes light up"
talking about what kind of guy does it for her and how any guy can turn her own.
that just what it means to me.

LOOOOOOOVE this song! (and that Kenny Chesney is niiiiice...very nice)
What a redneck song :-P -LimpedBRoach

I think the first word is actually 'plowin' instead of 'round.
I think his tractor's sexy

Kenny is just one sexy man. His tractor MUST be sexy as well.
