I'm the cop in a little bitty town
And I don't get much pay
Oh, but I caught seventeen out of state cars
And four of my friends today
Yeah, I let the hometown boys go home
They paid five dollars bail
Oh, but all the drivers in the out of state cars
Had to go to jail
Well, they hollered and they moaned
And 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
Yeah, the judge and me got a deal
You see we split the money fair
Except for thirty percent to the county seat
To keep the law out of our hair
And old Charlie's working out real good
Down at the corner store where the red light is
He sees them out of state plates two blocks away
And when they get right up on top of that green light
Old Charlie pushes that secret button
Underneath the corner drugstore counter
That yellow light only lasts for a tenth of a second
And I don't get much pay
Oh, but I caught seventeen out of state cars
And four of my friends today
Yeah, I let the hometown boys go home
They paid five dollars bail
Oh, but all the drivers in the out of state cars
Had to go to jail
Well, they hollered and they moaned
And they cried and they groaned
They all swore that they'd sue
