Highway Patrol
I got a star on my car and one on my chest
A gun on my hip and the right to arrest
I'm a guy who's the boss on this highway
So watch out what you're doin' when you're drivin' my way
If you break the law, you'll hear from me, I know
I'm workin' for the state, I'm the highway patrol
Well, you'll know me when you see me 'cause my door's painted white
And my siren a-screamin' in my flashin' red lights
I work all day and I work all night
Just to keep the law and order, tryin' to do what's right
If I write you out a ticket, then you'd better drive slow
I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm the highway patrol
I'm the highway patrol, the highway patrol
My hours are long and my pay is low
But I'll do my best to keep you drivin' slow
I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm the highway patrol
If you're drivin' too fast like you shouldn't do
You can bet your boots, I'm comin' after you
If you wanna race, then get on a racetrack
'Cause if you try to run away, I'm gonna bring you back
I'm here to keep all the speeders drivin' slow
I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm the highway patrol
I'm the highway patrol, the highway patrol
My hours are long and my pay is low
But I'll do my best to keep you driving slow
I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm the highway patrol
I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm the highway patrol
A gun on my hip and the right to arrest
I'm a guy who's the boss on this highway
So watch out what you're doin' when you're drivin' my way
If you break the law, you'll hear from me, I know
I'm workin' for the state, I'm the highway patrol
Well, you'll know me when you see me 'cause my door's painted white
And my siren a-screamin' in my flashin' red lights
I work all day and I work all night
Just to keep the law and order, tryin' to do what's right
If I write you out a ticket, then you'd better drive slow
I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm the highway patrol
I'm the highway patrol, the highway patrol
My hours are long and my pay is low
But I'll do my best to keep you drivin' slow
I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm the highway patrol
If you're drivin' too fast like you shouldn't do
You can bet your boots, I'm comin' after you
If you wanna race, then get on a racetrack
'Cause if you try to run away, I'm gonna bring you back
I'm here to keep all the speeders drivin' slow
I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm the highway patrol
I'm the highway patrol, the highway patrol
My hours are long and my pay is low
But I'll do my best to keep you driving slow
I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm the highway patrol
I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm the highway patrol
