lirik lagu ray stevens - dudley dorite of the highway patrol
chorus
well…they call him dudley dorite, but that’s not his
real name
the toughest highway cop from california to maine
he hides back in the bushes with the latest radar
take your picture, then he’ll catch you in his modified
car
his heart’s hard as concrete and his blood is ice cold
he’s dudley dorite of the highway patrol – dudley
dorite

yeah…he’ll pull up behind you in that fast-modified car
and walk up to you and hook both thumbs over that black
hand-tooled leather pistol belt. look down at you from
behind them cool-hand luke, man with no eyes,
sungl-sses and say…”clocked you back ‘ar at 57 1/2
miles an hour, yeah i did. guess you know you’re in a
heap o’trouble don’t you boy? heh, heh, heh, heh, heh”

he rides a big ole harley, got a mustang gt
and a bell helicopter hidden in the pine trees
