You Can't Outrun Their Radio

My father told me a long, long time ago,

You can't outrun their radio.

No matter where, how far or fast you go,

You can’t outrun their radio.

When you are out on the road, you must keep your nerve,

Don't let your foot get heavy, or let your car swerve.

If you do get pulled over, do all that is asked,

When the cop gets huffy and takes you to task.

Don’t panic and think you can bug-out and run.

There will be no place for you to hide under the sun.

You might out run them and leave them in your dust,

But when you flee the cops, there is one thing you can trust.

You can drive as fast and as far as you want to go,

Just remember, you can’t outrun their radio.

You can elude them through every back street and alley.

They will just be waiting, having doughnuts and coffee.

My father told me a long, long time ago,

You can't outrun their radio.

No matter where, how far or fast you go,

You can’t outrun their radio.

It goes for anything you might do that breaks the law.

You might think you are sitting pretty and above it all,

You have the world by the tail and can not be touched.

But you will lose that tail you feel that you have clutched.

You will get caught no matter how smart you think you are.

You will be tracked down and put behind those cold bars.

My father told me a long, long time ago,

You can't outrun their radio.

No matter where, how far or fast you go,

You can’t outrun their radio.

Yes, my father was right.

You can’t outrun their radio.
