Forty Acres - Boxcar Willie[00:00:00]

He was headin' into beantown in a big long diesel truck[00:00:09]

It was his first trip to Boston he was having all bad luck[00:00:13]

He was going the wrong direction down a one-way street in town [00:00:17]

And this is what he said when the police chased him down[00:00:20]

"Give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around[00:00:25]

"Give me forty acres it's the easiest way I've found[00:00:29]

"Some guys can turn it on a dime or turn it right downtown [00:00:33]

"But I need forty acres to turn this rig around[00:00:37]

When he finally found where to unload he had a dreadful shock[00:00:41]

His trailer pointed toward the road and his cab right to the dock[00:00:47]

And as he looked around him [00:00:51]

Through the tears he made this sound:[00:00:53]

"Well give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around[00:00:55]

"Well give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around[00:01:00]

"Give me forty acres it's the easiest way I've found[00:01:04]

"Some guys can turn it on a dime or turn it right downtown [00:01:08]

"But I need forty acres to turn this rig around[00:01:12]

When he finally got unloaded he was glad to leave the town[00:01:34]

He was very very happy goin' back to Alabam'[00:01:38]

When up ahead he saw a sign that said: "You're Northward bound[00:01:42]

" He said: "Give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around[00:01:46]

He said: "Give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around[00:01:51]

"Give me forty acres it's the easiest way I've found[00:01:55]

"Some guys can turn it on a dime or turn it right downtown [00:02:00]

"But I need forty acres to turn this rig around"[00:02:04]

He was driving down the right lane when ahead he saw a sign[00:02:09]

He had to make a left turn but he cannot get in line[00:02:13]

Now the tears came streaming down his cheeks[00:02:17]

And everybody heard him yell:[00:02:19]

"Give me forty sticks of dynamite and I'll blow this thing to[00:02:21]

"Give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around[00:02:25]

"Give me forty acres it's the easiest way I've found[00:02:28]

"Some guys can turn it on a dime or turn it right downtown [00:02:32]

"But I need forty acres to turn this rig around"[00:02:36]

"Yeah give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig around[00:02:42]

"Give me forty acres it's the easiest way I've found[00:02:46]

"Now if you can turn it on a dime or turn it way downtown [00:02:50]

"But I need forty acres to turn this rig around"[00:02:54]

Yeah it takes me forty acres to turn this thing around[00:03:01]

Better make that fifty acres[00:03:04]

Well maybe I can turn when I get to Kansas[00:03:07]

Better make that Texas[00:03:10]

Heck I can make it all the way back to Birmingham[00:03:14]

Cleveland How'd I get to Cleveland[00:03:18]
