Justice for Willy

verse 1
Well the Reverend Baker looked out on the little congregation
What few of us had gathered to pay our last respects
He said we've come to say goodbye to brother Willie Johnson
His race is run in this world I don't know about the next

verse 2
There on the front pew sat his little widder
Hiding who knows what behind a veil of black
None of us knew then that she slipped him the poison
That caused him to leave this world with a heart attack

chorus 1
Gone... soon forgotten
She couldn't wait until they layed him down
She's already plottin'
And he ain't even cold in the ground

verse 3
She had great big plans for his insurance money
Botox and lipo would give her back her youth
Then she'd run off to Europe
With the boy who sacked her groceries
She never thought that anyone would ever know the truth

verse 4
But before the service ended the county sheriff showed up
Thanks to DNA he had the evidence
Now you can rest in peace that's what he said to Willy
Then he slapped those silver bracelets on the widow's wrist

chorus 2:
Gone... but not forgotten
Justice always finds a way somehow
They sent her up the river
Before he was even cold in the ground
