[Verse 1]
If you get pulled over on the road
Just shut up and do as you’re told
It ain’t time to be a track star on the news
So your license got suspended
That’s a week in county jail
But you take off running them boys 'bout to send you straight to hell

[Chorus]
Everybody been thinking it
But I just been saying it out loud
It Kept me off country radio
But I got in good with the underground
'Cause I wasn’t raised that way, hell no
And I think that most folks would agree
If you didn't do nothing wrong then why don’t you just stop
Man don’t run from the cops

[Verse 2]
If you don’t raise your kids to respect those boys in blue
When they’re 15 they gonna go viral on the news
I don’t sympathize with a punk and I don’t shed tears they put you away
You lucky you didn’t get shot nine times only got your dumbass tased

[Chorus]
Everybody been thinking it
But I just been saying it out loud
It Kept me off country radio
But I got in good with the underground
'Cause I wasn’t raised that way, hell no
And I think that most folks would agree
If you didn't do nothing wrong then why don’t you just stop
Man don’t run from the cops
[Bridge]
You might make it 100 yards
But son you ain’t gon’ go that far
That ole K-9’s closing in right on your tail
And we’ll all watch it on the news
Eating popcorn laughing too
It ain’t the system you’re just stupid as all hell

[Chorus]
Everybody been thinking it
But I just been saying it out loud
It Kept me off country radio
But I got in good with the underground
'Cause I wasn’t raised that way, hell no
And I think that most folks would agree
If you didn't do nothing wrong then why don’t you just stop
Man don’t run from the cops
Yeah, don't run from the cops
