Justified

(Verse 1)
If you think that you can run If you think that you can hide
If you think that you can take him like many who have tried
He'll bring you in or shoot you down
It's your freedom to decide
Don't matter how you choose it-either way he's justified
(Chorus)
He's justified - 9 millimeter ready by his side
He's justified - If you're doin' wrong know he can't let it slide
He's justified - White Stetson hat, his boots ain't never shined
How you play your hand will tell if you will live or you will die
He's justified -
(Verse 2)
His daddy was an outlaw yet he's on the side of peace
But if you try to cross him you will end up on your knees
Don't think that you can play him 'cause he talks a little slow
He's got a job to do and there ain't no emotion' gonna show-- He's justified -
(Chorus)
He's justified - 9 millimeter ready by his side
He's justified - If you pull on him you won't get out alive
He's justified - White Stetson hat, his boots ain't never shined
How you play your hand will tell if you will live or you will die
He's justified -
(RAP)
Well the Crowders and the Crowes and the Bennetts had to go
He's a sucker for the ladies if you really wanna know
There's a lotta shady people been crossin' hid path
If you try to run away, he's gonna hafta bring you back
(Chorus)
He's justified - 9 millimeter ready his side
He's justified - If you pull on him you won't get out alive
He's justified - White Stetson hat, his boots ain't never shined
How you play your hand will tell if you will live or you will die
He's justified -
