Sounds Like Justice - Hank Williams, Jr
Album: 127 Rose Avenue
Key: E Major
EHe lived right across the street
AIt was on the news for the world to see
B7They caught him with his hands on a neighbor's child
ENow he swore he'd never done it before and he
Ecried before the judge in court so they
Esent him away for just a little while
EMornin' found him in his cell
ASomebody sent him straight to hell
B7Beggin' for mercy down on his knees
ESounds like justice to me
CHORUS
EGo on, do your dirty work
AIn your tailored suit and your clean white shirt
B7You don't care who you hurt
EDealer sellin, dealin' lies
Eand hide inside a little glass pipe
ASo you don't care who dies
B7This can't go on, I gotta believe
EHey that's Gabriel's horn blowin' on the breeze
ESounds like justice to me
VERSE 2
EMom and Pop had a corner store, It had
Abeen there thirty years or more
EAnd they'd been robbed about a hundred times
EPunk walked in like he owned the place
ASaid give up the money as he slapped his face
EHe didn't know Pops had a .45
B7They found him face down on the floor
B7Dude never made it to the door
B7Pop said I learned in the Army how to point and squeeze
And it sounds like justice to me
CHORUS 2
EGo on, do your dirty work
AIn your tailored suit and your clean white shirt
EYou don't care who you hurt
EDealer sellin, dealin' lies
Aand hide inside a little glass pipe
ESo you don't care who dies
B7It's gonna catch up to ya buddy, I gotta believe
B7Hey that's Gabriel's horn blowin' on the breeze
ESounds like justice to me
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
B7Listen up
That's Gabriel's horn blowin' on the breeze
ESounds like justice to me
Sounds like justice to me
SPOKEN
(Vamp on E)
Keep messin' around
You're gonna meet the wrong dude in town
You reap what you sew
