Driving Along And Pulled Over
The Police Are Doing Their Job
After a day of work
I was heading home
Halfway to my destination
In my rearview window
I see the prettiest bright blue lights flash
The police
Where did they come from?
I pulled off to the side of the road
The officer approached the car
He explained why he pulled me over
Because I was riding the line in between the fast lane and the middle lane
You weren't speeding
He asked if I had anything to drink tonight
I said no
I explained I was coming from work
I try to drive safe
He wanted to make sure I wasn't falling asleep
The police officer asked for my license and registration
No problem
I handed it to him and he walked back to his car
I waited for a few minutes and when he came back
I am going to give you a warning
Be careful
We don't want an accident
Thank you, officer
I got my license and registration back
Can I show you something?
Sure
I turned the key slowly so you can see the milege on the speedometer
It read 463,120 miles
He said almost a half a million miles
Where trying
Driving home for the past seventeen years
I put my registration back in the glove box
I put my license back in my wallet
I waited for the nice policeman to pull out first
He didn't so I pulled out slow
The bright lights still in my eyes
So I really couldn't see
The police officer pulled out after then drove off
I do my best driving home from work
Soon I will be home
One more drive under my belt
One step closer to our goal
I hope we can make it
Only time will tell
