Red The red machine is called a "quad", A bike that has four wheels, It travels very speedily And climbs the steepest hills. It pulls a useful trailer And carries quite a load. If driven very carefully It goes along the road.
Orange This very useful tractor, Although he's rather small, Can work all day and half the night. It tires not at all. It's lifting arms are very strong For lifting any load. Because he does not go so fast We keep him off the road.
Yellow The tractors down at Rainbow Farm Include one little fellow Who is not quite a tractor But who is attractive yellow. He used to cut the garden grass And trim the Big Back Yard But now he soon gets tired and Finds work rather hard.
Green Sturdy John is quite a Deere With wheels as tall as me. Whatever task he has to do He does it willingly. He cuts the meadow, splits the wood And will thump a heavy post. Of all the tractors at the farm He really does the most.
Blue Bluey has a temper And sometimes roars too loud. Of all my lovely tractors, Of him I am least proud. He will not work on Sundays. Is it laziness or what? I cannot make him work too hard Because his motor gets so hot.
Dark Blue (Indigo) Now Dark Blue has a problem. His wheels go round O.K. But his diesel engine crankshaft Broke down the other day. His battery is broken, His mudguards both have rusted. You cannot take him anywhere. Alas, he can't be trusted.
Violet Violet is dreamy. She sleeps away her day Resting in the Big Green Barn And sobbing, 'cos she's gray. I would like one day to paint her A color more befitting But, if she will shirk all honest work, In the barn I'll leave her sitting.
