It was his first trip to Boston,
in a big long diesel truck.
It was his first trip to Boston,
he was having lots of luck.
He was headed the wrong direction,
down a one -way street in town.
And this is what he said,
when the police chased him down.
and I'll turn this rig around
It's the easiest way that I've found
Some guys can turn her on a dime
or turn it right downtown
When he finally found where to unload
His trailer pointed toward the road
and his cab right to the dock
And as he looked around him,
through his tears he made the sound
and I'll turn this rig around
and I'll turn this rig around
It's the easiest way that I've found
Some guys can turn it on a dime
or turn it right downtown
When he finally got unloaded
He was glad to leave that town
He was feeling very happy
When up ahead he saw a sign
Said, you are northward bound
He said, give me 40 acres
and I'll turn this rig around.
He was driving down the right lane
when ahead he saw a sign.
He had to make the left turn,
but he could not get in line.
and they all heard him yell,
give me 40 sticks of dynamite,
and I'll blow this rig up.
and I'll turn this rig around.
It's the easiest way that I've found
Some guys can turn it on a dime
and turn it right down town
But I need 40 acres to turn this around
