[00:00:00] Pay The Alligator - The Flatlanders

[00:00:14] Sheriff pulled me over and he started his jive

[00:00:17] In a 20 mile zone I was doin' 25

[00:02:15] Order in the Court

[00:02:16] Suspect on the Stand

[00:02:18] He said he saw the witness with a whistle in his hand

[00:02:21] The Judge said I hate to implicate the perpetrator

[00:02:25] But if you jack with the Judge
