40 Acres on My Mind

40 Acres On My Mind V1 My friend's an accountant, in New York City Her office is 40 stories high She pushes paper, and crunches numbers And tries to make her boss man smile

BSec. On her break she called to say, I want to burn my cubicle and run away Oh please can't I come and visit for a while

Chorus Cause I've got, four-ty, acres on my mind A fishing hole, your dog named Bo And a back yard stretching a country mile And when I wake each morning, I want nothing but time, And 40 acres on my mind

Verse 2 I said guess what I'm doing, you won't believe it Thought I'd tease her just a time I said I'm sittin' on my front porch watchin this sun set, the sky's on fire with orange and red And there's a little blue bird that come to sing for a while

BSec. And maybe I'll just sit right here, sippin on this ice cold beer Sorry honey, come down for the weekend, just bring your smile

Chorus Cause I'ved got 40 acres for your mind My fishing hole, my dog named Bo And a backyard stretching a country mile You can sleep late every morning, and wake with nothing but time And 40 acres on your mind

Bridge (fall in love) I guess you know what happend She came for 2 days and never went back she traded that job that was 40 stories high

Last Chorus Now we've got 40 acres on our mind A little girl with her mama's cures, and love that lasts a country mile And when we wake each morning, go nothing but time And 40 acres on my mind
