Joey Gaskin - Checkpoint lyrics
rate meRed lights won't stop this tonight
You're speeding into traffic
Check your hazard lights
Babe, look over your shoulder
I am pulling you over
I'm checking for ID
License and registration please
I'm checking over your taillights
What’s that, in your backseat?
I'mma need you to pop your trunk
I think you're smuggling
You might just get a ticket
If you get disorderly
Or maybe I might just write you a warning
You didn’t see me coming
Nor the roadblock
You know just what I'm wanting
And now you've gotta to stop
It’s too late to turn around
To take another way home
You’re still in my jurisdiction
And babe now you're in my zone
Tell me where you’re headed
What if I said forget it?
You can’t come through my checkpoint
Without knowing where you're going
I'm not gonna let you go
I don't wanna let you go
I need you to take a ride back with me
From the checkpoint
Baby, you're under my surveillance
Your tags are expired
Do you know their outdated?
If I choose to let you slide
Next time, I'll write you a fine
Why am I going easy on you?
I'm not that type
I'll give you a break
Don’t think this ends my investigation
Cause I show you have a history
Of parking violations
So move along, don't sit still
Why are you hesitating?
Hey lady, cross the line
Don't keep me waiting
You didn’t see me coming
Nor the roadblock
You know just what I'm wanting
And now you've gotta to stop
It’s too late to turn around
To take another way home
You’re still in my jurisdiction
And babe now you're in my zone
Tell me where you’re headed
What if I said forget it?
You can’t come through my checkpoint
Without knowing where you're going
I'm not gonna let you go
I don't wanna let you go
I need you to take a ride back with me
From the checkpoint
Mam,
Please step out the car
You are
Guilty as charged
I was gonna let you go
You’re not gonna let me go
I was gonna let you go
You’re not gonna let me go
I didn’t see this coming
Nor the roadblock
You knew that you were wanted
That's why you never stopped
So what made you turn around
To take another way home?
I think you knew my jurisdiction
Cause now you're in my zone
Tell me where you’re headed
What if I said forget it?
You can’t come through my checkpoint
Without knowing where you're going
I'm not gonna let you go
I don't wanna let you go
I need you to take a ride back with me
From the checkpoint
