Well a man come on the 6 o'clock news
  Said 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
    Grandpappy told my pappy, 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 them high in the street for all the people to see that
    [Chorus:]
    Justice is the one thing you should always find
  You got to saddle up your boys
  You got to draw a hard line
  When the gun smoke settles we'll sing a victory tune
  We'll all meet back at the local saloon
  We'll raise up our glasses against evil forces
  Singing whiskey for my men, beer for my horses
    We got too many gangsters doing dirty deeds
  We've got too much corruption, too much 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 'cause
    [Chorus (x2)]
