Hi guys- This is a new one between Dave and myself. It features Cassidy Feasby on vocals, and Dan Hochhalter on banjo and fiddle from Dierks Bentley's band. Thanks to Dave Becker for the great lyrics and trusting me with his baby. I loved making this song.

VERSE 1

I'm on the run
I've got my gun

It's the only thing that I trust
To get the job done

I'm all alone
I'm on my own

Ten bucks in my pocket
Some change and a dingy old comb



CHORUS

They can steal my life
Then watch me bleed

Take my money
Rip the soul out of me

The judge said son
That's the way it must be

Shotgun Justice burns in me








VERSE 2

A shotgun blast
To cleanse the past

You right a wrong
Into the darkness you're cast

You lie in wait
Until the job gets done

Take out two lives
Now you're on the run

PRE-CHORUS

First they took my home
Then he took my wife

I see them with the kids

On a Saturday night



CHORUS

They can steal my life
Then watch me bleed

Take my money
Rip the soul out of me

The judge said son
That's the way it must be

Shotgun Justice burns in me

SOLO…………………………………………….


BRIDGE (SAME MELODY AS CHORUS)

I had them in my sight
I wanted them to see

What their lies
Had done to me

So with the barrel pointed
At my head

Bang Bang baby, now I'm dead




VERSE 3

It's judgment day
What can I say

I beg for his grace
In shame and disgrace

Absolution
It's way too late

I plead my case
And await my fate
