[G]
[C] [D]
[G] I was coming through Maryland [C] the other night [D] with an old max smoking, [G] doing alright.
My hand on the wheel, [C] my foot on the floor, [D] running wide open, wouldn't [G] do no more.
I [C] was looking for statemen, [D] radar, and a lady [G]
hitchhiking.
Caught a bunch of trucks [C] in a no-passing [D] zone, was scared to pass, [G] but I wanted to get home.
[C] [D] [G] I followed up a hill [C] and around a curve, [D] didn't see no trooper and I was [G] getting up in the air.
I [C] got in the left lane,
[D] scraping gear, I tried to get in [G] front.
[C] [D] [G]
I got out here [C] on the back of the Hummin' and [D] I looked up the road [G] and seen one coming.
I had her running about [C] 63 [D] and his eyes lit up like a [G] Christmas tree.
I seen him [C] smile as I went [D] by, he had a two-gear clement, let's get [G] up and fly.
[C] [D]
[G] I looked in the mirror, [C] he was coming [D] back and I got on a break of that [G] smoking night.
[C] Trying to slow down, [D] change my mind, [G] didn't want to front.
[C] [D]
[G] He pulled me [C] over and he said the [D] grin, it looked like he done [G] goofed again.
[C] [D]
[G] I said Mr.
Trooper [C] if you'll let me [D] alone, I'll crank you smack and go on [G] home.
I'll run [C] slow, [D] stay behind, won't try [G] to pass.
[C] [D]
[G] He said you can come on [C] and go with me and [D] we'll ride on down to the [G] old JP.
[C]
Bring your driver's license, [D] your bill to phone, your [G] buddies too.
[C] [D]
[G] [C] [D]
[G] I asked that [C] trooper to bar down [D] and he looked at me like I'd [G] lost my mind.
He said you ain't [C] gonna need no [D] phone, you're jailhouse bound, you ain't [G] going home.
