Justified Man Songtext
von Glenn Hughes

Oh, down by the beggar′s wall, there is another land
This is the place I've come to set me free
Just like a fighting man lost in a river
I didn′t notice I was blind but now I see

They took a photograph, they heard my story
And then the jury tried and sentenced me
And now I'm sanctified, without resistance
I left my body and I'm gonna let it be

Now I′m standin′ on the platform at the station
I hear the engine of the train that takes me there
I ain't lookin′ back until I reach my destination

Nobody gonna bring me down
I'm a justified man
Nobody gonna drag my train
I′m a justified man

Inside the hour glass the sand keeps turnin'
Outside my window, falls the rain that washes me
Gone is my fear, need no assistance
And now I′m justified, those days are gone you see


I've been livin' in war of speculation
I stand accused but I ain′t goin′ anywhere
I ain't lookin′ back until I reach my destination

Nobody gonna bring me down
I'm a justified man
Nobody gonna drag my train
I′m a justified man

Now I'm standin′ on the platform at the station
I hear the engine of the train that takes me there
I ain't lookin' back until I reach my destination

Nobody gonna bring me down
I′m a justified man
Nobody gonna drag my train
I′m a justified man

Nobody gonna bring me down
I'm a justified man
Nobody gonna drag my train
I′m a justified man

Oh, nobody
Nobody gonna bring me down
I'm a justified man
