Officer Down
I'm a policeman and I've been shot.
I want to survive but sadly, I may not.
I'm in a lot of pain as I'm lying on the ground and bleeding.
This happened because I pulled a man over for speeding.
The lousy punk had a bag of cocaine sitting on his back seat.
It looks like The Lord is somebody who I'm about to meet.
I'm probably going to die because of that punk's crime.
I called for an ambulance but it may not arrive in time.
I've been honor bound to protect and serve.
This isn't something that a lawman deserves.
That punk took off in his car but he won't get away.
I may die but another officer will catch him and he will pay.
