Lyrics
[Verse 1]
State Trooper thinks I drive too fast, pulled me over to tell me so
I say out here on the prairie, any speed is too slow
I miss Brooklyn, I miss my crew, let's start over, I missed my cue
I guess I forgot who I was talking to
[Verse 2]
I should have recognized that fierce look in his eyes
I've seen it in my mirror so many times
He's gonna put his two cents in 'cause he's got a gun
But I'm gonna put in three 'cause history owes me one
[Verse 3]
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, Mister Holiness and let the little people through
[Verse 4]
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 anybody asked me
[Verse 5]
Maybe you and I will meet again someday
Yeah, I've been known to come down this road
Yeah, maybe it is destiny and then again
Maybe not, I don't know
