State trooper thinks I drive too fast
Pulled me over to tell me so
I say out here on the prarie
Any speed is too slow
I miss Brooklyn, I miss my crew
Let's start over
I missed my cue
Guess I forgot
Who I was talking to
ย
I should have recognized
That fierce look in his eyes
I've seen it in the mirror
So many times
He's going to put his two cents in
'cause he's got a gun
But I'm gonna put in three
'cause history owes me one
ย
Guess I came out here to see some
Stuff for myself
I mean, why leave the telling
Up to everybody else?
This may be God's country
But this is my country too
Yeah move over Mr. Holiness
And let the little people through
ย
Thank you for serving and protecting
The likes of me
Thank you for the ticket
Now can I leave?
You know I have left everywhere
That I have ever been
I don't really recommend it though
Not like anyone asked me
ย
Maybe you and I
Will meet again someday
Yeah I've been known to come down this road
Maybe it is destiny
Then again, maybe not
I don't know
ย
