Highway Patrol
Junior Brown
Album: Guit with it
A augmentedA
I got a star on my car and one on my chest
A augmentedA
A majorA gun on my hips and the right to arrest
D MajorD
I'm the guy who's the boss on this highway
A augmentedA
So watch out what you're doing when you're driving my way
E MajorE
If you break the law, you'll hear from me, I know
A augmentedA
I'm a-(Pause) working for the state
E MajorE A augmentedA
I'm The Highway Patrol.
A augmentedA
Well, you'll know me when you see me, 'cause my door's painted white
A augmentedA
My siren a-screaming and my flashing red lights
D MajorD
I work all day and I work all night
A augmentedA
Just a-keeping law and order, trying to do what's right
E MajorE
If I write you out a ticket, then you'd better drive slow
A augmentedA
I'm just a-doin' my job,
E MajorE A augmentedA
I'm The Highway Patrol.

D MajorD
I'm The Highway Patrol, The Highway Patrol
A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
My hours are long and my pay is low
D MajorD
But I'll do my best to keep you driving slow
A augmentedA
I'm just a-(Pause) doin' my job
E MajorE A augmentedA
I'm The Highway Patrol.
A augmentedA
If you're driving too fast like you shouldn't do
A augmentedA
You can bet your boots I'm coming after you
D MajorD
If you wanna race, then get on a race track
A augmentedA
'Cause when you try to run away, I'm gonna bring you back
E MajorE
I'm here to keep all the speeder's driving slow
A augmentedA
I'm just a-doing my job,
E MajorE A augmentedA
I'm The Highway Patrol.
