Justified
Here you will be able to find a theme song for the Justified television series and also lyrics.
In just one season, Justified was already nominated for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Main Title Theme Music. However, because it did not win—Nurse Jackie did—I wonder if it could still win, let alone be nominated. I don’t know what the “rules” are on that one.
Have you ever asked yourself who sings the Justified theme song? The song is entitled “Long Hard Times to Come”, which is quite evident if you’ve heard it a few times. It was performed by a group called Gangstagrass. Research says that their name comes from the genre they created, which combines authentic bluegrass and rap.
Quite weird, but to each his own. Either way, the opening theme rocks. What do you personally think of Gangstagrass long hard times-to-come song? How would you assess it? I would give it 11 out of ten.
“Long Hard Times to Come” is not included in Gangstagrass’ one and only album, Lightning on the Strings, Thunder on the Mic, so I’m guessing an official soundtrack is yet to come. Another thing, that Gangstagrass’ album is Gangstagrass featuring T.O.N.E-Z. “Long Hard Times to Come” is also credited that way—Gangstagrass featuring T.O.N.E-z. Another, another thing. In the Emmys, the credited composers were Jason Keaton and Oscar Owens.
Lyrics
The part used in the title sequence of the Justified TV series is just the chorus.
On this lonely road, trying to make it home
Doing it by my lonesome pissed off who wants some
I’m fighting for my soul, God get at your boy
You try to bogard fall back I go hard
On this lonely road, trying to make it home
Doing it by my lonesome pissed off who wants some
I see them long hard times to come.
