letra de justice & mercy - ward thomas
[verse 1]
he grew up in a small town
burned his own house down
‘fore he hit the age of eight
his mother took flight
and left him behind
and then there was h-ll to pay
they said he had a friend that
followed where he went and
covered his tracks but then
his friend took his bike
and wrecked it one night
and he was never seen again
[chorus]
some said what we gonna do?
the devil had a baby and he’s coming for you
some said he can be saved
they got together and they knelt to pray
half the town cried “mercy”, half the town cried “justice”
and n0body got their way
[verse 2]
years turned to ghosts
on the low road
he left a trail of pain
he swindled the good
in each neighbourhood
and ran with no trace of shame
romancing robber
fraudulent father
he had a hundred names
but the word of mouth
across the whole south
was he was the one to blame
[chorus]
some said what we gonna do?
the devil had a baby and he’s coming for you
some said he can be saved
they got together and they knelt to pray
half the towns cried “mercy”, half the towns cried “justice”
and n0body got their way
[instrumental break]
[verse 3]
one stormy night
they caught him hiding
or so the story goes
as the town’s people argued
he was struck by a lightning bolt
[chorus]
some said let’s celebrate
he’s gone to h-ll and we’re finally safe
some said god is grace
they got together for his soul to pray
half the town cried “mercy”, half the town cried “justice”
it is what it is either way
