C D7
He was headin' into Beantown in a big long diesel truck
G7 C
It was his first trip to Boston he was having all bad luck
D7
He was going the wrong direction down a one-way street in town
G7 C
And this is what he said when the police chased him down
D7
Give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around
G7 C
Give me forty acres it's the easiest way I've found
D7
Some guys can turn it on a dime or turn it right downtown
G7 C
But I need forty acres to turn this rig around
D7
When he finally found where to unload he had a dreadful shock
G7 C
His trailer pointed toward the road and his cab right to the dock
D7
And as he looked around him through the tears he made this sound
G7 C
Well give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around
D7
Give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around
G7 C
Give me forty acres it's the easiest way I've found
D7
Some guys can turn it on a dime or turn it right downtown
G7 C
But I need forty acres to turn this rig around
