I got a star on [A]my car and one on my chest
[A]A gun on my hips and the right to arrest
I'm the g[D]uy who's the boss on this highway
So [A]watch out what you're doing when you're driving my way
If you b[E]reak the law, you'll hear from me, I know
I'm a-(P[A]ause) working for the state
I'm The [E]Highway Pa[A]trol.
[A]Well, you'll know me when you see me, 'cause my door's painted white
[A]My siren a-screaming and my flashing red lights
I work al[D]l day and I work all night
Just a-k[A]eeping law and order, trying to do what's right
If I wri[E]te you out a ticket, then you'd better drive slow
I'm just[A] a-doin' my job,
I'm The [E]Highway Pa[A]trol.
REFRAIN
I'm The [D]Highway Patrol, The Highway Patrol
My [A]hours are long and my [E]pay is [A]low
But I'll [D]do my best to keep you driving slow
I'm just a[A]-(Pause) doin' my job
I'm The [E]Highway Pat[A]rol.
[A]If you're driving too fast like you shouldn't do
[A]You can bet your boots I'm coming after you
If you wa[D]nna race, then get on a race track
'Cause[A] when you try to run away, I'm gonna bring you back
I'm here to [E]keep all the speeder's driving slow
I'm just a[A]-doing my job,
I'm The [E]Highway Pat[A]rol.
