Crosstown Traffic lyrics

You jump in front of my car when you,

You know all the time that

Ninty miles an hour, girl, is the speed I drive

You tell me it's alright, you don't mind a little pain

You say you just want me to take you for a ride

You're just like crosstown traffic

So hard to get through to you

Crosstown traffic

I don't need to run over you

Crosstown traffic

All you do is slow me down

And I'm tryin' to get on the other side of town

I'm not the only soul who's accused of hit and run

Tire tracks all across your back

I can see you had your fun

But darlin' can't you see my signals turn from green to red

And with you I can see a traffic jam straight up ahead

You're just like crosstown traffic

So hard to get through to you

Crosstown traffic

I don't need to run over you

Crosstown traffic

All you do is slow me down

And I got better things on the other side of town
