Every Red Light Lyrics - That's Why - Craig Morgan

That secondhand junkyard heap 

Was freedom with two bucket seats 

With two grand on the windshield in shoe polish 

I had a stash of summer cash 

From cleanin' pools and cuttin' grass 

Gave the man that coffee can and I bought it 

From the moment that I turned the key 

My right foot was heavy 

From a mile away folks could hear me 

Leanin' on that Chevy 

Slidin' sideways through the town square 

Peelin' out, Bruce Springsteen turned up too loud 

Playin' air guitar, drummin' on the dash 

Only brakin' for the badge

Had the man in blue burnin' through 

Tickets by the pound 

Yeah, I paid for every red light 

In my hometown 

I still remember Jessie Lynn 

Her sweet perfume and her poured in 

Those faded jeans that always fit just right 

Steamin' windows up on the riverbank 

Had to get that V-8 cranked 

To have her on the front porch by midnight 

Catchin' air on railroad tracks 

Detroit horses breathin' 

Peelin' paint off of city hall 

Fuzz buster screamin' 

Slidin' sideways through the town square 

Peelin' out Lynyrd Skynyrd turned up too loud 

Playin' air guitar, drummin' on the dash 

Only brakin' for the badge 

Had the man in blue burnin' through 

Tickets by the pound 

Yeah, I paid for every red light 

In my hometown 

I burned up a hundred tires 

Turnin' blacktop into gravel 

Wore out my daddy's patience 

And the judge's gavel 

Slidin' sideways through the town square 

Peelin' out, I can't drive 55 [Incomprehensible] 

Playin' air guitar, drummin' on the dash 

Only brakin' for the badge 

Had the man in blue burnin' through 

Tickets by the pound 

Yeah, I paid for every red light 

In my hometown
