JUSTIN BROWN

Justin Brown rolled into town
Defying definition
Justin Brown cleaned up the town
And he didn’t carry a gun
But he with love’s artillery
Got mighty trigger-happy

Justin, he said trust in me
Give ear to what I’m saying
Don’t leave freedom to the free
Or heaven to the saints
The sun, it shines on everyone
It has no favourites, no not one

Justin brown, Justin brown
He defied definition
Turned my world upside down
Or let’s say the right way round

When the Fitzroy boys rolled into town
With mad intent they told him
“We’ve had our bellyful of you
And soon the worms will too
So git! Pick up your feet and git
And don’t you give us no more lip!”

Well, blow me down he stood his ground
Defying definition
He showed up for the showdown
But he didn’t carry a gun
He knew although his time was through
He’d done what he had come to do

Justin brown, Justin brown …

No angels like the cavalry
Came riding out of heaven
As with venom and vulgarity
They hung him from a tree
You see, the holy mystery
Is that all this was meant to be

Dead men, they don’t walk around
They’re silent six feet under
But you can’t keep a good man down
Especially Justin brown
Yes sir, that tricky customer
Is more alive than ever
