Cop Car

Writer(s): Zach Crowell, Sam Hunt, Matt Jenkins

We drove right past That no trespassing sign

We sat on the tailgate and watched the planes take off

We thought we had all night There was no need to rush

That's when those cops came pulling up

And I thought Man ain't this some shh

Your daddy's gonna kill me

But if I survive tonight

I wouldn't change one thing

Baby yeah I know it sounds crazy

But there was somethin'

'bout the way the blue lights were shinin'

Bringing out the freedom in your eyes

I was too busy watching you going wild child

to be worried about going to jail

You were thinking that

running for it

would make a good story

I was thinking you were crazy as hell

And you were so innocent

But you were stealing my heart

I fell in love in the back of a cop car

Man they weren't playin'

They sure threw those cuffs on quick

You tried to sweet talk 'em

They didn't fall for it but I did

You were on the left I was on the right

I knew you didn't smoke

when you asked him for a light

And I laughed

He got mad and slammed the door

Swear your daddy's gonna kill me

But if I survive tonight

I wouldn't change one thing

Baby yeah I know it sounds crazy

But there was somethin'

'bout the way the blue lights were shinin'

Bringing out the freedom in your eyes

I was too busy watching you going wild child

to be worried about going to jail

You were thinking that

running for it

would make a good story

I was thinking you were crazy as hell

And you were so innocent

But you were stealing my heart

I fell in love in the back of a cop car

Oh oh

and you were like

Side by side and locked in tight

They were taking their time but we didn't mind

And we talked and we laughed and we sat real close

By the time they let us go

I was already gone

But there was somethin' 'bout the way

the blue lights were shinin'

Bringing out the freedom in your eyes

I was too busy watching you going wild child

to be worried about going to jail

You were thinking that

running for it

would make a good story

I was thinking you were crazy as hell

But you were so innocent

But you were stealing my heart

I fell in love in the back of a cop car

I fell in love in the back of a cop car

And side by side we're locked in tight

They were taking their time but we didn't mind

We talked and we laughed we sat real close

By the time they let us go

I was already gone

I was already gone baby

I fell in love in the back of a cop car
