Beer For My Horses Lyrics
by Toby Keith
[Toby Keith]
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.
[Willie Nelson]
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,"
[Toby]
That justice is the one thing you should always find.
You got to saddle up your boys,
You got to draw a hard line.
[Willie]
When the gunsmoke settles, we'll sing a victory tune.
We'll all meet back at the local saloon.
[Both]
We'll raise up our glasses against evil forces,
Singing: 'Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses.'"
[Toby]
We got too many gangsters doing dirty deeds,
[Willie]
We've got too much corruption, too much crime in the streets.
[Toby]
It's time the long arm of the law, put a few more in the ground.
[Willie]
Send 'em all to their maker, and he'll settle 'em down:
[Toby]
You can bet he'll settle 'em down.
[Toby]
Cause justice is the one thing you should always find.
You got to saddle up your boys,
You got to draw a hard line.
[Willie]
When the gunsmoke settles, we'll sing a victory tune.
We'll all meet back at the local saloon.
[Both]
We'll raise up our glasses against evil forces,
Singing: "Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses."
Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses.
[Toby]
You know justice is the one thing you should always find.
You got to saddle up your boys,
You got to draw a hard line.
[Willie]
When the gunsmoke settles, we'll sing a victory tune.
We'll all meet back at the local saloon,
[Both]
We'll raise up our glasses against evil forces,
Singing: "Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses."
Singing: "Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses."
