He was headin' into Beantown in a big long diesel truck
B7 E
It was his first trip to Boston he was having all bad luck
F#7
He was going the wrong direction down a one-way street in town
B7 E
And this is what he said when the police chased him down
F#7
Give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around
B7 E
Give me forty acres it's the easiest way I've found

F#7
When he finally found where to unload he had a dreadful shock
B7 E
His trailer pointed toward the road and his cab right to the dock
F#7
And as he looked around him through the tears he made this sound
B7 E
Well give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around
Repeat #2
