New Jersey Turnpike ridin' on a wet night 'neath the refinery's glow, out 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... Maybe you got a kid maybe you got a pretty wife, the only thing that I got's been botherin' me my whole life Mister state trooper please don't stop me In the wee, wee hours your mind get hazy, radio relay towers lead me to my baby Radio's jammed up with talk show stations It's just talk, talk till you lose your patience Mister state trooper please don't stop me Hey somebody out there, listen to my last prayer Hi ho silver-o deliver me from nowhere
