Songs that say "Cops, Police, Sheriff..." in them



You've had lots of lovely women
Now you turn your gaze to me
Weighing the beauty and the imperfection
To see if I'm worthy
Like the church
Like a cop
Like a mother
You want me to be truthful
Sometimes you turn it on me like a weapon though
And I need your approval

Still I sent up my prayer
Wondering who was there to hear
I said Send me somebody
Who's strong and somewhat sincere
With the millions of the lost and lonely ones
I called out to be released
Caught in my struggle for higher achievements
And my search for love
That don't seem to cease
 
does convoy count????

By the time we got into Tulsa Town,
We had eighty-five trucks in all.
But they's a roadblock up on the cloverleaf,
And them bears was wall-to-wall.
Yeah, them smokies is thick as bugs on a bumper;
They even had a bear in the air!
I says, "Callin' all trucks, this here's the Duck.
"We about to go a-huntin' bear."
 
This doesn't actually say cop, police, sheriff, but the lawman that used to go after criminals back in the days when they used to hang men from the gallows usually was the sheriff & his deputies.

Renegade - Styx

Oh Mama, I'm in fear for my life from the long arm of the law
Law man has put an end to my running and I'm so far from my home
Oh Mama I can hear you a cryin', you're so scared and all alone
Hangman is comin' down from the gallows and I don't have very long

The jig is up, the news is out
They finally found me
The renegade who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
This'll be the end today
Of the wanted man

Oh Mama, I've been years on the lam and had a high price on my head
Lawman said 'Get him dead or alive' and it's for sure he'll see me dead
Dear Mama I can hear you cryin', you're so scared and all alone
Hangman is comin' down from the gallows and I don't have very long


 
Indiana Wants Me

Indiana wants me (this is the police, you are surrounded)
Lord, I can't go back there (give yourself up)
Indiana wants me (this is the police, give yourself up)
Lord, I can't go back there (you are surrounded)
 
The police Rehumanize yourself.

A policeman put on his uniform
Like to have a gun just to keep him warm.
Because violence here is a social norm
you got to humanize yourself.

 
Ke$ha Tik Tok

Now, now, we goin' til they kick us out, out
Or the police shut us down, down
Police shut us down, down
Po-po shut us (down)-man

 
Gin Blossoms Hey Jealousy.

Tomorrow we can drive around this town
And make the cops chase us around.
The past is gone but something might be found to take it's place
Hey Jealousy.
 
Loey, Loey, Loey, Loey, Loey
(Loey, Loey, Loey, Loey, Loey)
Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey
(Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey)
*Eh, come in, fool boy, eh-eh, the police mon is on the premises!
*What is he doing in here?
Mo and Joe had a candy store
Telling fortune behind a door
Cop grabbed Mo and as Joe ran out
Brother Mo then began to shout
(Run Joe!) Eh, de man at de door
(Run Joe!) He man won't let me go
(Run Joe!) Run as fast as you can
(Run Joe!) Police holding me han'
Ask Juanita to stand me bail
Don't want to sleep in this rotten jail
Hide de crystal ball by de fence
So dey won't find no evidence
When you reach home, get in de bed
Call a doctor and tie your head
Let Juanita invent a lie
Got to have a good alibi
(Run Joe!) Eh, de man at de door
(Run Joe!) De man…

Not many of recent generations are aware of Mr. Jordan's contributions to R+B; good on you for the knowledge :cool:.
His Caribbean accent is laughable but he has the beat down just fine.
 
Walk Like An Egyptian - The Bangles

If you want to find all the cops
They're hanging out in the donut shop
They sing and dance (oh way oh)
Spin the clubs, cruise down the block

...All the cops in the donut shop say
Ay oh way oh, ay oh way oh
Walk like an Egyptian
Walk like an Egyptian
