I was driving down the route doing 185
Just me and my friends out for a ride
I should have seen the trouble looming ahead
Should have known better I was into the red
But I never saw the gun I never saw the law
Hiding in back of a 4by4
Caught on a photograph guilty of driving fast
But some days you've got to lose I'm in the slow lane I've got the slow lane blues
They took me to the side and gave me some grief
Said I was crazy I couldn't believe
good cop bad cop they played the routine they took away my car I tossed them the keys
their was nothing on the road when I gave it the gas I never saw the law we were having a blast
Caught on a photograph guilty of driving fast but some days you've got to lose I'm in the slow lane I've got the slow lane blues
They said I had it coming a matter of time driving like a fool ignoring the signs but I never saw the gun I never saw the law hiding in the back of a 4by4
