Willie man come on 6 o'clock noon says somebody's 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
Grandpapy told my Papy back in my day son a man had to answer for the wicked that he done Take all the rope in Texas Find a tall Oak tree Round up all of them bad boys Hang'm high in the street For all the people to see.
(Chorus) Cause justice is the one thing you should always find you got to sattle 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 salloon We'll raise up our glasses against evil forces singing whiskey for my men, beer for my horses
We've got too many gangsters doin 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 them all to their maker and he'll settle'm down You can bet he'll settle'm down
