Beer For My Horses Lyrics

Beer For My Horses lyrics

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

(chorus)

whisky for my men,
beer for my horses

(chorus)

singin whisky for my men, beer for my
horses
