State Trooper

New jersey turnpike ridin' on a wet night

'neath the refinery's glow, out where the great black rivers flow

License, registration, I ain't got none, but I got a clear conscience

'bout the things that I done

Mister state trooper please don't stop me...

Maybe you got a kid maybe you got a pretty wife, the only thing that I got's been botherin' me my whole life

Mister state trooper please don't stop me

In the wee, wee hours your mind get hazy, radio relay towers lead me to my baby

Radio's jammed up with talk show stations

It's just talk, talk till you lose your patience

Mister state trooper please don't stop me

Hey somebody out there, listen to my last prayer

Hi ho silver-o deliver me from nowhere
