Driving Down a One Way Street

I’m in a hurry; I’ve just got to get there. My girlfriend says: “Babe, you’d better beware!” “The cops are out there, they’re waiting for you!” “So don’t get picked up by the men in blue.” CHORUS: Turning down a one way street. I never thought the cops I’d meet. Turning down a one way street. And now I’m in trouble. Weep, weep, weep, weep. Waah! I took a chance and I turned to the right. Went past a stop sign and through a red light. I heard the siren; I looked in the mirror, My girlfriend said: “Yes, they’ve spotted you, dear.” CHORUS: Turning down a one way street. Now I’m in the cop’s back seat. Turning down a one way street. And now I’m in trouble. (Gruff spoken voice): Your car is be-ing towed! (In cadence with the musical refrain.) INSTRUMENTAL BREAK. Repeat Chorus. They hooked my car, now it’s gone to the pound. The judge said: “Guilty!" on all charges he found. So now, I’m walking, my girlfriend’s so mad. I can’t pay the fines ‘cause my credit’s so bad. CHORUS: Turning down a one way street. I never thought the cops I’d meet. Turning down a one way street. My insurance has doubl-ed. Weep, weep, weep, weep, Waah! (Repeat tag line and fade out…) Sung to the tune: DRIVE MY CAR.
