You jump in front of my car when you, 
you know all the time that 
Ninety 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 [bad word] 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 [bad word] 
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 [bad word] over you 
Crosstown traffic 
All you do is slow me down 
And I got better things on the other side of town
