Lyrics

Tailgatin' Me
VERSE Well it was Saturday night in Savannah when I met you at The Blues Café
You had your foot on the gas you were closin' in fast
No time for me to get away.
CHORUS And I say, Hey, Hey where is your friendly trooper when you need one?
You tell me.
You better put on the brakes or do whatever it takes
'Cause I'm a-beggin' you to slow down please
You're tailgatin' me
VERSE You've been followin' me all night long just as close as you can be
And I see you clear in my rear view mirror
And it's startin' to get to me
CHORUS And I say, Hey, Hey where is your friendly trooper when you need one?
You tell me.
You better put on the brakes or do whatever it takes
'Cause I'm a-beggin' you to slow down please
You're tailgatin' me
BRIDGE Tell me what's a girl to do, runnin' from a boy like you? It's so confusin'
Think I'm gonna lose my mind, tryin' to leave you way behind
There's no solution
VERSE Well it's a quarter 'till three you're still chasin' me
And now I'm prayin' to the Lord
That you just let me go 'cause I'm way too slow
For a man in a revved-up Ford
CHORUS And I say, Hey, Hey where is your friendly trooper when you need one?
You tell me.
You better put on the brakes or do whatever it takes
'Cause I'm a-beggin' you to slow down please
You're tailgatin' me
You better put on the brakes or do whatever it takes
'Cause I'm a-beggin' you to slow down please
You're tailgatin' me
You're tailgatin' me
Hey, get off my tail
