Well a m[A]an come on the [D]6 o'clock ne[A]ws
Said so[A]mebody's been shot, somebo[E]dy's been abu[A]sed.
Somebody bl[A]ew up a building, somebody st[D]ole a c[A]ar.
Somebod[A]y got away, somebody d[E]idn't get too f[A]ar.
Yeah[F#m], they didn't g[E]et too f[A]ar.
Grandp[A]appy told my pappy, "Back in [D]my day, s[A]on,
A m[A]an had to answer for the wi[E]cked that he do[A]ne.
Take a[A]ll the rope in Texas find a t[D]all oak t[A]ree,
Round up a[A]ll them bad boys, hang 'em h[E]igh in the st[A]reet
[F#m]For all the people [E]to see t[A]hat
CHORUS -----------------------------------------
Ju[E]stice is the one thing you should alw[D]ays fi[A]nd.
You gotta sa[D]ddle up your b[A]oys, you gotta d[E]raw a hard l[A]ine.
When the gun[E]smoke settles we'll sing a v[D]ictory t[A]une
We'll a[D]ll meet b[A]ack at the lo[E]cal sal[A]oon.
We'll ra[A]ise up our glasses aga[D]inst evil fo[A]rces singin,
Whis[G]key for my me[D]n, Beer for my hor[A]ses.
-----------------------------------------------
We got t[A]oo many gangsters doin[D] dirty de[A]eds.
We've got t[A]oo much corruption too much cr[E]ime in the str[A]eets
It's time the lo[A]ng arm of the law put a f[D]ew more in the ground [A]
Send 'em a[A]ll to their maker and he'll set[E]tle 'em d[A]own
[F#m]You can bet he'll settle [E]'em down c[A]ause
(Chorus)
Whi[G]skey for my me[D]n, beer for my hor[A]ses.
