Letra State Trooper de Afterhours original

(cover di Bruce Springsteen)

New Jersey turnpike
ridin' on a wet night
down the refinery's glow
down where the great black rivers flow
license registration
I ain't got none
but I got a clear conscience
'bout the things that I done

Mister state trooper
please don't stop me
please don't stop me
please don't stop me

maybe you got a kid
maybe you got a pretty wife
the only thing that I got
has been botherin' me my whole life

Mister state trooper
please don't stop me
please don't stop me
please don't stop me

In the wee, wee hours
your mind get hazy
radio relay towers
lead me to my baby
the radio's jammed up
with talk show stations
it's just talk, talk, talk, talk
till you lose your patience

Mister state trooper
please don't stop me
please don't stop me
please don't stop me

Hey somebody out there
listen to my last prayer
Hiho silver-o
deliver me from nowhere
