On the [C]highway at night, the lights blazing [F]red
and [C]there ain’t no sounds except the pounding in my [Am]head
And a [C]couple, cop sirens, blaring for [F]me
They [C]stopped me en route to the refine[Am]ry
[section 2]
They [C]said, “You look mean”, “The kettle is [F]black”
They [C]punched me, for that one, and threw me in the [Am]back
They [C]say, “You’ve been drinking”, I said, “Yes, of [F]course
But [C]it ain’t drunk driving if you’re [G7]riding a [C]horse”
Well there’s [C]coked-up truck drivers and T-Birds on [F]meth
And [C]cell phones, and silver folks, scare me to [Am]death
And [C]pills, weed and NyQuil in every third [F]car
And [C]liquored-up grandmas heading down to the [Am]bar

Well I [C]pleaded and pleaded without any [F]gain, took all the

And the [C]judge, he had the gall, to shrink all my [F]wealth
He said, [C]”What do you have, to say for your[Am]self
Of your [C]sinning and your drinking do you feel much re[F]morse?” No, ’cause
