         A                         E 
I got an 18 wheeler and a worn out dog 
      A                               B7 
And I ain't got nothing to say to the law 
      A                                        E 
I got 10 more miles and I'm hittin that county line

Instrumental 
 
 
Well, my worn out jeans didn't fit no more, had long hair on my back 
I guess that's not the best appearance for that judge in black 
So, he picked up his pen and he put me away for a little stretch of time 
I said 7 long months 39 days and never did a crime 
 
Bridge 
 
Chorus
