"She Cranks My Tractor" is a song recorded by American country music artist Dustin Lynch. It was released in November 2012 as the second single from his self-titled debut album. Lynch co-wrote the song with Brett Beavers and Tim Nichols.

Content

Co-writer Brett Beavers said that the song idea came when Lynch suggested that they write an up-tempo song.[1] The lyric is a double entendre about a woman who is attractive to the narrator.

Critical reception

Billy Dukes of Taste of Country gave the song two stars out of five, writing that "while the song is a bit heavy-handed, [it] is a ton of fun if you don’t listen too closely."[2] Matt Bjorke of Roughstock gave the song a favorable review, saying that "it's another rural route mood-maker but it's well-written, strongly-produced and expertly-performed."[3] Ben Foster of Country Universe gave the song a D grade, writing that "everything about 'She Cranks My Tractor' practically beats the listener over the head, from the pounding bass to the T.M.I. lyrics."[4]

Music video

The music video was directed by Wes Edwards and premiered in November 2012.[5]
