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 Please don't stop me please don't stop me
Maybe you got a kid maybe you got a pretty wife The only thing that I got's Been bothering me my whole life Mister state trooper please don't stop me Please don't stop me please don't stop me
In the wee wee hours your mind gets hazy Radio relay towers lead me to my baby Radio's jammed up with talk show stations It's just talk talk 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
Hey, somebody out there, listen to my last prayer Hi, Ho, silver oh, deliver me from nowhere
