Justice Will Be Done lyrics

Justice Will Be Done

Hank Williams Jr

Album:



I went down to the Mary Carter Paint store

I said give me one of them Smith & Wesson magnum 44’s

Cause there’s a man that the law let loose

And justice was not done

This man killed my wife and my only little son



I’ll never forget the way he looked all thru the trial

He had his big named lawyer 

And he had that smirkey smile

Whoa yeah he got you off on a technicality

But you have to grow wings and fly

To ever get away from me



Cause I got rights

I got rights too

And this time there won’t be no damn lawyers

And systems to protect you

I’m gonna read you

I’m gonna read you your rights

You got a right to know that you gonna go

To hell one of these black nights



And when the trial was over he had the nerve to say

That’s the way it goes

I said well hoss you better get you some corks

Cause your gonna have to plug up a few holes

Guess he thought I was talking 

Just to pass away time

But he kinda looks different now

On his knees begging for his life



He I got rights

I got  some rights too

And this time there won’t be no damn lawyers

And systems to protect you

But I’m gonna read you

I’m gonna read you your rights

Because I want you to know that you’re gonna go

To hell one of these black nights



Naw and this time there n’aint no damn lawyers

And systems to save you
