Heavy Thing - Paul Kelly

Farmer John’s daughter’s messing with my sleep

Oh, Lordy, all I 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
