The Radio8Ball Show's song of the day today is a live 2004 version of my dirge "Tractor Pull." Growing up in rural Montana I had the privilege of driving an old Massey Ferguson tractor, and nothing made me happier than ploughing earth with seagulls and crows spinning overhead, the Mission Mountains looming to the east and a warm wind blowing through my snap-down shirt. I could be "working" and daydreaming at the same time.
"Tractor pull me from my house / Tractor pull me from my room / Tractor pull me from my spouse / Tractor pull me to my tomb."
