Sounds Like Justice Lyrics

He lived right across the street
It was on the news for the world to see
They caught him with his hands on a neighbor's child
Now he swore he'd never done it before and he
cried before the judge in court so they
sent him away for just a little while
Mornin' found him in his cell
Somebody sent him straight to hell
Beggin' for mercy down on his knees
Sounds like justice to me
CHORUS
Go on, do your dirty work
In your tailored suit and your clean white shirt
You don't care who you hurt
Dealer sellin, dealin' lies
and hide inside a little glass pipe
So you don't care who dies
This can't go on, I gotta believe
Hey that's Gabriel's horn blowin' on the breeze
Sounds like justice to me
VERSE 2
Mom and Pop had a corner store,
It had been there thirty years or more
And they'd been robbed about a hundred times
Punk walked in like he owned the place
Said give up the money as he slapped his face
He didn't know Pops had a .45
They found him face down on the floor
Dude never made it to the door
Pop said I learned in the Army how to point and squeeze
And it sounds like justice to me
CHORUS 2
Go on, do your dirty work
In your tailored suit and your clean white shirt
You don't care who you hurt
Dealer sellin, dealin' lies
and hide inside a little glass pipe
So you don't care who dies
It's gonna catch up to ya buddy, I gotta believe
Hey that's Gabriel's horn blowin' on the breeze
Sounds like justice to me
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
Listen up
That's Gabriel's horn blowin' on the breeze
Sounds like justice to me
Sounds like justice to me
SPOKEN
Keep messin' around
You're gonna meet the wrong dude in town
You reap what you sew
