lyrics

Well he passes now and then
As I watch over the highway
I'm lookin from overhead
For a killer runnin free

Well the late shift took its toll
and I pulled one over again
and I struggled to see a face inside
So I slowly drew my weapon

and he rolled the window down
and presented me his card
"For Dominion Coal n Steel I drive
I'm not going very far"

"Sir you were going 105
I'ma have to check your load"
and without a hesitation
I was looking down the barrel

Of a fully loaded gun
I saw flashes of my life
I had only just had met my daughter
I'd a newly wedded wife

I said "Sir please settle down,
I'll just lay down on the ground"
But he must've pulled the trigger 'fore
The words were out my mouth

Well he passes now and then
As I watch over the highway
I'm lookin from overhead
For a killer runnin free
