A7
  
He was headin' into Beantown in a big long diesel truck 
        
D7
                                
G
  
It was his first trip to Boston he was having all bad luck 
                                         
A7
  
He was going the wrong direction down a one-way street in town 
     
D7
                                                
G
  
And this is what he said when the police chased him down 
 
                              
A7
  
Give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around 
 
D7
                             
G
  
Give me forty acres it's the easiest way I've found 
                                    
A7
  
Some guys can turn it on a dime or turn it right downtown 
 
D7
                                        
G
  
But I need forty acres to turn this rig around 
 
                                       
A7
  
When he finally found where to unload he had a dreadful shock 
     
D7
                                        
G
  
His trailer pointed toward the road and his cab right to the dock 
                                         
A7
  
And as he looked around him through the tears he made this sound 
      
D7
                                           
G
  
Well give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around 
 
Repeat #2 
 
                                     
A7
  
When he finally got unloaded he was glad to leave the town 
        
D7
                      
G
  
He was very very happy goin' back to Alabam' 
                                  
A7
  
When up ahead he saw a sign that said you're northward bound 
         
D7
                                           
G
  
He said give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around 
 
Repeat #2 
 
                                         
A7
  
He was driving down the right lane when ahead he saw a sign 
    
D7
                            
G
  
He had to make a left turn but could not get in line 
                                                  
A7
  
Now the tears came streaming down his cheeks and everybody heard him yell 
         
D7
                                  
G
  
Give me forty sticks of dynamite and I'll blow this thing to ... 
 
Repeat #2  
 
                                   
A7

D7
                             
G
  
Give me forty acres it's the easiest way I've found 
                                     
A7
  
Now if you can turn it on a dime or turn it way downtown 
 
D7
                                        
G
  
But I need forty acres to turn this rig around

D7
