I got a star on my car and one on my chest
A gun on my hip and the right to arrest
I'm the guy who's the boss on this highway
So watch you what you're doin' when you're drivin' my way
If you prayed for law your effort be I know
I'm a workin' wor the state I'm the highway patrol

Well you'll know me when you'll see me cause my door's painted white
With my sirene a screamin' and my flashin' that light
I work all day and I have all night
Just to keepin' law in order tryin' do what's right
If you're drivin' in a pickup then you 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're 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

[ guitar ]
Well 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 race truck
Or if you try to run away I'm gonna bringin' you back
I'm here to keep all the speed drivin' slow
I'm just a doin' my job I'm the highway patrol

Well I'm the highway patrol...
I'm just a doin' my job I'm the highway patrol
