[Verse 1]
Willie man come on the 6 o'clock news
Said somebody been shot
Somebody's been abused
Somebody blew up a building
Somebody stole a car
Somebody got away
Somebody didn't get too far, yeah
They didn't get too far
[Verse 2]
Grandpappy told my pappy, back in my day, son
A man had to answer for the wicked that he'd done
Take all the rope in Texas, find a tall oak tree
Round up all of them bad boys, hang 'em high in the street
For all the people to see
[PreChorus]
That justice is the one thing you should always find
You gotta saddle up your boys, you gotta draw a hard line
When the gun smoke settles, we'll sing a victory tune
And we'll all meet back at the local saloon
[Chorus]
We'll raise up our glasses against evil forces
Singing, whiskey for my men, beer for my horses
[Verse 3]
We got too many gangsters doing dirty deeds
Too much corruption and crime in the streets
It's time the long arm of the law put a few more in the ground
Send 'em all to their maker and he'll settle 'em down
You can bet he'll set 'em down
[PreChorus]
'Cause justice is the one thing you should always find
You gotta saddle up your boys, you gotta draw a hard line
When the gun smoke settles, we'll sing a victory tune
And we'll all meet back at the local saloon
[Chorus]
And we'll raise up our glasses against evil forces
Singing, whiskey for my men, beer for my horses
Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses
[PreChorus]
You know justice is the one thing you should always find
You gotta saddle up your boys, you gotta draw a hard line
When the gun smoke settles, we'll sing a victory tune
And we'll all meet back at the local saloon
[Chorus]
And we'll raise up our glasses against evil forces
Singing, whiskey for my men, beer for my horses
Singing, whiskey for my men, beer for my horses
