Allis, Allis Chalmers, Allis Chalmers was her name
Allis, Allis Chalmers, Allis Chalmers was her name
When I was a young boy livin̓ on the farm
I remember those hot summer days
We̓d hitch the mower up to the tractor
And start cuttin̓ down that hay
Allis, Allis Chalmers, Allis Chalmers was her name
Allis, Allis Chalmers, Allis Chalmers was her name
We̓d leave the hay out to dry for a day or two
Hopin̓ that it wouldn̓t rain
Then we̓d bring out the rake and the bailer
and we̓d all go to work again
with Allis, Allis Chalmers, Allis Chalmers was her name
Allis, Allis Chalmers, Allis Chalmers was her name
Then we̓d hitch up the big old wagon
With the sun so hot in the sky
Everybody on the farm pitched in
We̓d stack those bales of hay so high
with Allis, Allis, Allis Chalmers, Allis Chalmers was her name
Allis, Allis Chalmers, Allis Chalmers was her name
Allis was painted orange
She was made back in ‘54
We got her engine started with a rusty crank
We parked her by the big barn door
Allis, Allis Chalmers, Allis Chalmers was her name
Allis, Allis Chalmers, Allis Chalmers was her name
Allis, Allis Chalmers, Allis Chalmers was her name
Allis, Allis Chalmers, Allis Chalmers was her name
