Upside Down

Officer, good evening, allow me to explain
 This spectacle you see beside the road
 Its been a long hard day, and I'm just a victim
 of circumstances beyond my control
 Now let me just assure you that I'm not a drinkin man
 I work hard to uphold the law
 Those people in that other car, well they're friends of my ex wife
 No matter what they told you they saw
 The car was upside down when I got here
 I left it right side up some time ago
 Some kids drove by and poured something all down my shirt
 It might have been tequila, I don't know
 I just stepped in the woods for a midnight prayer
 I don't know what went down while I was not here
 That stop sign was on the windshield when I bought the car
 And the car was upside down when I got here
 Officer, my reputation speaks for itself
 I'm as innocent and gentle as a child
 That fist fight with my momma, well that was 3 months ago
 I cant believe that's still on my file
 Now a conscientious peacekeeper such as yourself
 Must surely recognize an honest guy
 And since most of my money goes to charitable causes
 I cant afford no DWI
 The car was upside down when I got here
 I left it right side up some time ago
 Some kids drove by and poured something all down my shirt
 It might have been tequila, I don't know
 I just stepped in the woods for a midnight prayer
 I don't know what went down while I was not here
 That stop sign was on the windshield when I bought the car
 And the car was upside down when I got here
 I ain't got a clue what went down while I was not here
 But the car was upside down when I got here
 That's right
 You gotta believe me
