Police Siren

I hear a police siren, listen to it wail
It means another poor boy is going off to jail

Police siren, police siren
Screaming in my ear

Well, I can see the red lights flashing
My face is turning pale
Please, don't pull me over
I don't want to go to jail

I've got no driver's license
My plates are out-of-state
The insurance has been cancelled
The registration's out-of-date

Police siren, police siren
That's the sound I fear

I look into the rear view mirror
The police are on my trail
I don't want to call my father
And ask him to come and go my bail

Sorry, I lost the papers that prove the car is mine
But, sir, I can tell you, I drive it all the time

Police siren, police siren
I hear it loud and clear

Police siren, police siren
Listen to it wail
Police siren, police siren
I don't want to go to jail
