Man With the Ticket

Going 80
In a 50 zone
Cruising along
Singing my song
I like this beat
Lets crank it loud
Driving this road
Losing the load

I've got the wheel
Mic in my hand
The spot light is mine
Lead in the band
Whats that flashing?
Its the man
The man with the ticket

Saw him last week
In the 30 zone
When I took a stop
With a skip and a hop
No one was coming
And the music was good
Too late to down gear
Lights in the mirror

I've got the wheel
Mic in my hand
Spot light is mine
The head of the band
But theres a flashing
An uniformed man
Man with a ticket

Pulled to the side
A quieter tone
Swelling the blues
Hey, nothing to lose
He gives a grin
Says to slow down
A warning for you
I like the song too

You take the wheel
I've played the hand
Spot light all yours
The head of the band
Keep an eye on the rear
For the man in the mirror
Man with the ticket
