Lyrics:

New Jersey Turnpike
Cruisin' on a wet night
Beneath the refinery's glow
Out where the bleak black water flows

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 ya stop me
Please don't ya stop me
Please don't ya stop me

Maybe you got a kid
Maybe you got a pretty wife
Well, the only thing that I got
Has been botherin' me my whole life

Mister state trooper
Please don't ya stop me
Please don't ya stop me
Please don't stop me
Hey


Now, in the wee, wee hours
Your mind get hazy
Radio relay towers
Won't you lead me to my baby

Now, the radio's jammed up
With talk show stations
It's just talk, talk, talk, talk
'Til you're losin' your patience

Mister state trooper
Please don't ya stop me
Well, please don't ya stop me
Well, please don't stop me
Huh huh


Is anybody out there
Listenin' to my last prayer?
Hi ho, silver-o
Deliver me from nowhere
