A man with forty acres plowed and planted

Was son, you better get them crops in when it turns cool
[Verse 2]
F C
In the magazines, I saw the pretty women
G C
I heard about the drinkin' and the bars

If my daddy could've caught me, he'd a-killed me
G C
He said, "You might run, boy, but you ain't gonna get far"
[Verse 3]
F C
I hit town, you might say that it hit me
G C
Next mornin' there were things I knew more about
F C
The woman who had taken me in she said, "Country boy, you're all right"
G C
The same way I turned her on, she turned me out
[Verse 4]

The first law I broke, right away they got me

They fed me two times a day and they knocked me down about four
G C A
For thirty days I didn't even crack a smile
[Verse 5]
D G D
I met a nice girl and she said I was her baby
A D
She let me go and would never tell me why

I learned what it means to be somebody's baby

They let you lie in your bed by yourself and cry
