Just to keep the law and order, tryin' to do what's right
'Cause if you try to run away I'm gonna bring ya back

I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm the highway patrol
I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm the highway patrol
I'm the highway patrol, the highway patrol
I'm workin' for the state, I'm the highway patrol
But I'll do my best to keep you driving slow
I'm the highway patrol, the highway patrol

I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm the highway patrol
But I'll do my best to keep you driving slow
If your drivin' too fast like you shouldn't do
My hours are long and my pay is low
If you break the law, you'll hear from me, I know
My hours are long and my pay is low
I work all day and I work all night

I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm a highway patrol
And my siren screamin' in my flashin' red lights
I'm just a-doin' my job, I'm the highway patrol
I'm a guy who's the boss on this highway
I'm here to keep all the speeders drivin' slow

'Cause my door's painted white
If you wanna race then get on a race track

You can bet your boots, I'm comin' after you
So watch out what you're doin' when you're drivin' my way
If I write you out a ticket, then you'd better drive slow
Well, you'll know me when you see me
