i’m the cop in a little bitty town, and i don’t get much pay.
but i’ve caught 17 out-of-state cars, and 4 of my friends today.
well, i let the home-town boys go home, they paid $5.00 bail.
but all of them tourists in the out-of-state cars, had to go to jail.

well, they hollered and they moaned — they cried and they groaned,
they all swore that they’d sue
but the judge was high, and so was i — and we needed the money too.

see, the judge and me got a deal you see — we split the money fair,
‘cept for 20% to the county seat — to keep the law out of our hair.

and old charlie’s workin’ out real good, down at the corner store where the red light is;
he sees them out-of-state plates 2 blocks away.
and when they get right up on top of that green light,
old charlie pushes that secret b-tton underneath the corner drug store counter.
that yellow light only lasts for a tenth of a second.

see, the county pays me about forty a week — can’t get the livin’ in.
if it wasn’t for the tourists and those out-of-state cars, i’d have no loot to spend.

but the way it stands this year so far, i’ve made a hundred thou,
for a high school drop-out i’m a doin’ fine,
i make more than the president now — ‘course he’s honest!
so, if you’re drivin’ down the road, and flashin’ lights you see,
if they’re on top of a red rolls royce, you can bet your boots it’s me.

‘cause i’m the cop in a little bitty town, and i’d sure like to see
all you drivers in them out-of-state cars try to get by me.
