lyrics

Hey officer, what'd you pull me over for?
I know that I was speeding, but I was running from the war
I got no stomach for fighting so I thought I'd try my luck up North
and that's the honest truth for whatever that's still worth

Hey officer, can you let me off this time?
See I'm trapped in a world where I can't find reason or rhyme
My television scares me and I don't read the paper no more
Hey officer, what'd you pull me over for?

Hey sheriff, man I think there's been some mistake
Your man just brought me in here pulled me over out by Cherokee Lake
I was explaining to him why I won't be sticking round no more
Hey sheriff, man what'd he pull me over for?

Please, your honor, this is turning into some bad dream
All I did was run from a country bursting at the seams
If you're saying that's illegal, guess I won't be walking out that door
Hey officer, what'd you pull me over for?
