behind me and turned on those flashing lights a sign that I [00:55.61]Knew [00:56.32]Meant pull it over [00:57.07] [00:58.31]So I stomped on my brakes and as I skidded to a halt [01:01.44]I wiped out three [01:02.62]Reflector posts along the shoulder [01:03.95] [01:05.87]He got out of his car and was a walking real slow [01:08.67] [01:09.55]So I jumped out and met him [01:11.52]Half way [01:12.14] [01:13.41]He jerked out his gun and said mister are you crazy [01:16.70]I ain't never seen nobody [01:17.96] [01:18.63]Drive that way [01:19.29] [01:20.80]I told him take it easy and he could put up that can not [01:23.92]The way he was shaking [01:25.04] [01:25.62]It just might go off [01:26.71] [01:28.30]He put up the gun as I explained my situation [01:30.89] [01:32.13]He listened to my story then he coughed [01:34.12] [01:39.68]He wrote me out a ticket that seemed to take forever [01:42.35] [01:43.19]I took it and as I [01:44.57]Headed for my car [01:45.29] [01:46.89]That cop he hollered after me and said hey cowboy [01:49.79] [01:50.39]You better slow down cause [01:51.61]You can't outrun this radar [01:52.66] [01:54.24]As I rolled on down the road I was a cursing [01:56.69] [01:57.29]About the ticket that I had just acquired [01:59.89] [02:01.65]I wondered if I ought to pay it our just throw it out the window [02:04.60]But I might [02:05.58] [02:06.10]Just set the damn thing afire [02:07.33] [02:08.89]So I gunned it once again and was a traveling down the highway with the [02:12.71]Gas [02:13.44]Pedal a mashed to the floor [02:14.88] [02:16.37]When I came around a curve and right there in the highway there was more [02:20.75]Damn [02:21.01]Sheep than I ever seen before [02:22.36] [02:23.88]I'm going to fast to ever stop so I just close my eyes as the [02:27.67]Car rolls on [02:29.22]Through the herd [02:29.86] [02:31.20]When I opened up my eyes again there's a sheep on the fender and that [02:35.19]And that [02:35.69]Herds saying some mighty awful words [02:36.91] [02:38.65]The sweats a dripping off my hands as I barrel through old Wheatland I'm a [02:42.32]Nervous wreck and I must be a sight [02:44.42] [02:46.02]The flies inside this old car are buzzing all around me [02:49.37]Guess my 24 hour deodorant quit last night [02:51.84] [02:53.52]60 50 40 30 20 miles more the rodeo starts in another 18 minutes [02:59.23] [03:00.85]I pull in through the main gate and I hear the anthem playing [03:04.16]I can't believe it thank god I finally made it [03:06.63] [03:12.05]There's only one more obstacle a standing in my way [03:14.97] [03:15.61]Its a nitwit with a weekend badge [03:17.92] [03:19.44]He standing by the gate and as I slide her to a halt [03:23.12]He yells where in the hell you going so dog gone fast [03:25.68] [03:26.87]I tell him that I'm entered and I ain't got time to talk [03:30.54]My horse is in the chute and I'm late [03:32.58] [03:34.38]He says I need to get a pass from the secretary my eyes get red [03:39.19]My heart fills [03:39.80]Up with hate [03:40.37] [03:41.70]I yell you dirty so and so you better let me through he asked if [03:46.04]I'd repeat [03:46.85]That once again [03:47.45] [03:49.06]So I whacked him in the mouth and a left him lying there on his [03:52.87]Back a kicking [03:53.97]In the sand [03:54.67] [03:56.69]I got there just in time to see my bronc come running out his head [04:01.07]And tail was [04:01.59]A held way up high [04:02.44] [04:04.03]I swear he looked right straight at me and grinned and gave horse laugh and [04:07.90]Me [04:08.52]I just stood there and cried I turned around feeling helpless and fairly [04:13.44] [04:13.95]Dumbfounded I looked and what did I see 3 highway patrolmen [04:20.07]And a gate man with a fat lip [04:22.39]And they were all a looking right at me [04:24.53] [04:26.61]Sitting in the cell now I've done a lot of thinking [04:29.90]About that wild run I made a month ago [04:31.89] [04:33.93]I'm sorry that I'm in this rotten situation [04:36.42] [04:37.51]If I could do it again I wouldn't have drove so slow [04:39.75] [04:40.93]If I could do it again I wouldn't have drove so slow
