Lyrics for State Trooper - 1986/Live At The Park West
New Jersey Turnpike Cruisin' on a wet night Beneath the refinery's glow Out where the deep black rivers flow License, registration I ain't got none But I got a clear conscience 'Bout the things that I've done Mister state trooper Please don't you stop me Please don't you stop me Please don't you stop me Maybe you got a kid Maybe you got a pretty wife Well, the only thing that I got It's been botherin' me my whole life Mister state trooper Please don't you stop me Please don't you stop me Please don't stop me Out in the wee, wee hours Your mind gets hazy Radio relay towers Won't you lead me to my baby? Now the radio's jammed up With those talk show stations It's just talk, talk, talk, talk 'Til you're losin' your patience Mister state trooper Please don't you stop me Well, please don't you stop me Well, please don't stop me Oh, is anybody out there? Listen to my last prayer Hi, ho, silver-o Deliver me from nowhere
