Toby Keith
"Beer For My Horses"

duet with Willie Nelson 
(Toby Keith, Scott Emerick) 

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)
