Letra de Highway Patrolman - Bruce Springsteen
Letra de canci�n de Highway Patrolman de Bruce Springsteen lyrics
My name is Joe Roberts I work for the state
I�m a sergeant out of Perrineville barracks number 8
I always done an honest job as honest as I could
I got a brother named Franky and Franky ain�t no good
Now ever since we was young kids it�s been the same come down
I get a call over the radio Franky�s in trouble downtown
Well if it was any other man, I�d put him straight away
But when it�s your brother sometimes you look the other way
Me and Franky laughin� and drinkin� nothin� feels better than blood on blood
Takin� turns dancin� with Maria as the band played "Night of the Johnstown Flood"
I catch him when he�s strayin� like any brother would
Man turns his back on his family well he just ain�t no good
Well Franky went in the army back in 1965 I got a farm deferment settled down took Maria for my wife
But them wheat prices kept on droppin� till it was like we were gettin� robbed
Franky came home in �68 and me I took this job
Yea we�re laughin� and drinkin� nothin� feels better than blood on blood
Takin� turns dancin� with Maria as the band played "Night of the Johnstown Flood"

I catch him when he�s strayin�, teach him how to walk that line
Man turns his back on his family he ain�t no friend of mine
The night was like any other, I got a call �bout quarter to nine
There was trouble in a roadhouse out on the Michigan line
There was a kid lyin� on the floor lookin� bad, bleedin� hard from his head there was a girl cryin� at a table, it was Frank they said
Well I went out and I jumped in my car and I hit the lights
I must of done 110 through Michigan county that night
It was out at the crossroads down round Willow bank
Seen a Buick with Ohio plates behind the wheel was Frank
Well I chased him through them county roads till a sign said Canadian border 5 miles from here
I pulled over the side of the highway and watched his taillights disappear
Me and Franky laughin� and drinkin� nothin� feels better than blood on blood
Takin� turns dancin� with Maria as the band played "Night of the Johnstown Flood"
I catch him when he�s strayin� like any brother would
Man turns his back on his family well he just ain�t no good
I�m a sergeant out of Perrineville barracks number 8
I always done an honest job as honest as I could
I got a brother named Franky and Franky ain�t no good
Now ever since we was young kids it�s been the same come down

Well if it was any other man, I�d put him straight away
But when it�s your brother sometimes you look the other way
