god's country


state trooper thinks i drive
too fast
pulled me over to tell me so
i say out here on the prairie
any speed is too slow
i miss brooklyn i miss my crew
let's start over i missed my cue
guess i forgot
who i was talking to
i should have recognized
that fierce look in his eyes
i've seen it in my mirror
so many times
he's gonna put two
cents in
'cause he's got a gun
but i'm gonna put in three
'cause history owes me one
guess i came out here
to see some stuff
for myself
i mean why leave the telling
up to everybody else
this may be god's country
but this is my country too
move over mr. holiness
let the little people thru
thank you
for serving and protecting
the likes of me
thanks for the ticket
now can i leave
you know i have left
everywhere that i have
ever been
i don't really recommend
it though
not like anybody asked me
