[Chorus 1]
Oh I Dam a little FeGrguson built so mDany years aAgo.
I was bDought up in DGublin,  at the DR. D. AS. spring sDhow.
I’m a loAvely little trGactor,  and I lDook so very cAute.
Not lDike the tractor Gof today that gDreat big Augly brDute.
[Verse 1]
Well they brDought me home to FGenagh,  in the CoDunty of CarAlow.
And the fDirst man to drGive me,  was MDickey’s AUncle JDoe.
He pAut on his tGop coat and he jDumped up on me sAeat.
Pulled bDack on the thrGottle,  and he fDlew out thArough the gDate.
[Chorus 2]
Oh I Dam a little FeGrguson built so mDany years aAgo.
I was bDought up in DGublin,  at the DR. D. AS. spring sDhow.
I’m a loAvely little trGactor,  and I lDook so very cAute.
Not lDike the tractor Gof today that gDreat big Augly brDute.
[Verse 2]
All the oDld lads started laGughing,  and jDeering now you sAee.
They sDaid that old black jaGckass,  was far beDtter nAow then Dme.
But the jaAckass he is lGong since dead,  his bDones have turned to dAust.
And hDere am I freshly paGinted,  with nDare a spAeck a rDust.
[Chorus 3]
Oh I Dam a little FeGrguson built so mDany years aAgo.
I was bDought up in DGublin,  at the DR. D. AS. spring sDhow.
I’m a loAvely little trGactor,  and I lDook so very cAute.
Not lDike the tractor Gof today that gDreat big Augly brDute.
[Verse 3]
Oh whEere have all the yeAars gone by,  I’m paErked here in the sBhed.
PEoor old Uncle JAoe is inside crEippled Bin the bEed.
But Bevery SeptAember,  unEtil the man is dBead.
He’ll gErab his little waAlkin' aid an’ he’ll hEead up fBor the sEhed.
[Chorus 3]
Oh I aEm a little FeArguson built so mEany years aBgo.
I was boEught up in DuAblin,  at the ER. D. BS. spring sEhow.

Not lEike the tractor Aof today that grEeat big Bugly brEute.
[Verse 4]
He’ll chEeck me oil and wAater,  he’ll shEine and polish Bme.
Then he’ll brEing me down to FAenagh,  for eEveryoBne to sEee.
