[Verse 1]
The shots I was taking, they been coming hard and hitting
And my mind was moving faster than I was admitting
I tried to explain my side on the trial
But all I could do is just sit there and smile
[Chorus]
And it's strange, so strange
I got the squad car blues
It's strange, it's all so strange
I got the squad car blues
[Verse 2]
A half-hour later, couldn't have been more to the minute
They said to me, boy come on just give in
But I held my own, and they couldn't prove a thing
Until they picked up the phone, and gave my lawyer a ring
[Chorus]
And it's strange, so strange
I got the squad car blues
It's strange, it's all so strange
I got the squad car blues
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
Now don't worry, baby
No they didn't hurt your man
No they tried and they tried, just as hard as one can
I know how I told you that I wouldn't do it never
But here's me at my bottom just like two birds of a feather
[Chorus]
And it's strange, so strange
I got the squad car blues
It's strange, so strange
I got the squad car blues
Alright
Oh yeah
I got the squad car blues
