'Bout Ethe time my daddy left to fight the big war
I Esaw my first pistol in the general Bstore
In the Bgeneral store, I was thirteen
I Bthought it was the finest thing I Eever had seen
EAsked if I could have it someday when I grew up
Mama dropped a dozen eggs and really blew Bup
She Breally blew up, I didn't understand
BMama said the pistol is the Edevil's right hand
The Adevil's right hand
The Edevil's Aright Ehand
BMama said the pistol is the Edevil's right hand.
My very first pistol was a cap and ball colt.
Shoot as fast as lightnin' but she'd load a might slow.
Load a might slow. I soon found out it'll
Get you into trouble,but it can't get you out.
So then I went and bought myself a colt 45.
It was called a peace maker, but i never knew why.
Never knew why, I didn't understand.
Mama says the pistol is the devil's right hand.
Well I Fgot into a card game in a company town
FCaught a miner cheatin' and I shot the dog Cdown
I Cshot the dog down, I watched the man fall
CNever touched his holster, never Fhad a chance to draw
The Ftrial was in the morning and they drug me outta bed
They Fasked me how i pleaded, not guilty I Csaid
Not Cguilty I said, you got the wrong man
CNothin touched the trigger but the Fdevils right hand
