Highway Robbery Lyrics – Tanya Tucker
Highway Robbery song Details:
Written by: Michael Garvin, Bucky Jones, Tom Shapiro
Okay officer, I admit it, I was speedin’.
But before you write me up, let me tell you the reason.
I wasn’t tryin’ to out run you.
I was chasin’ a guy who, out of the blue,
He committed a crime back about a mile or two, oh yeah.
I was cruisin’ along when he pulled up out of nowhere.
He was hotter than the truck he drove.
And just one lane over, he aimed those angel eyes at me.
He smiled like we were meant to be
For he stole my heart from a movin’ car.
It was highway robbery.
He grabbed my heart and took off on the run.
It was highway robbery.
He oughta do time in my arms for what he’s done.
So hey officer, how ’bout you understandin’.
Won’t you turn your blue light on and help me catch that bandit.
He’s got somethin’ that belongs to T.
I can’t let him get away scot-free
For it’s only right that he’s mine tonight.
It was highway robbery.
He grabbed my heart and took off on the run.
It was highway robbery.
He oughta do time in my arms for what he’s done.
It was highway robbery.
Well, he grabbed my heart and took off on the run.
It was highway robbery.
He oughta do time in my arms for what he’s done.
He oughta do time in my arms for what he’s done, oh yeah.
Hey officer, let’s talk about this now.
By the time you let me go, that boy’ll be all the way in Texas.
Sure is good lookin’.
By the way, what color are your eyes?
