State Trooper Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
About the things that I done
[Chorus]
Mister State Trooper
Please don't stop me
Please don't stop me
Please don't stop me
[Verse 2]
Maybe you got a kid
Maybe you got a pretty wife
The only thing that I got
Has been botherin' me my whole life
[Chorus]
Mister State Trooper
Please don't stop me
Please don't stop me
Please don't stop me
[Verse 3]
In the wee, wee hours
Your mind gets hazy
Radio relay towers
Gonna lead me to my baby
The radio's jammed up
With talk-show stations
It's just talk, talk, talk
'Til you lose your patience
[Chorus]
Mister State Trooper
Please don't stop me
Please don't stop me
Please don't stop me
[Verse 4]
Hey, somebody out there
Listen to my last prayer
Hi ho silver
Deliver me from nowhere, ah!
