Song Lyrics
I didn t understand, my very first pistol was a cap and ball colt Devil's, about the time that daddy left to fight the big war
Not guilty i said, nothing touched the trigger but the devil s right hand, thought it was the finest thing i ever had seen
Never knew why, i watched the man fall
The pistol is the devil s right hand, i didn t understand, shot the dog down
Loads a mite slow and soon i found out, in the general store when i was thirteen, loads a mite slow and soon i found out
Caught a miner cheating, the devil s right hand
my mama said
thought it was the finest thing i ever had seen
i asked if i could have one someday when i grew up
Is the devil s right hand, my mama said, caught a miner cheating
The devil s right hand, loads a mite slow and soon i found out The, my mama said
i shot the dog down
It can get you into trouble but it can t get you out, the devil s right hand
I watched the man fall, the devil s right hand
never touched his holster
The devil s right hand, really blew up Highwaymen, never had a chance to draw
it can get you into trouble but it can t get you out
thought it was the finest thing i ever had seen
In the general store when i was thirteen, in the general store when i was thirteen
Loads a mite slow and soon i found out, is the devil s right hand, i didn t understand
Mama said, the pistol is the devil s right hand, not guilty i said
I watched the man fall, the pistol is the devil s right hand, i shot the dog down
My mama said, is the devil s right hand
Shoot as fast as lightning but she loads a mite slow, mama said, the pistol is the devil s right hand
Nothing touched the trigger but the devil s right hand, in the general store when i was thirteen Right, is the devil s right hand
Mama dropped a dozen eggs, the devil s right hand
i asked if i could have one someday when i grew up
My trial was in the morning and they drug me out of bed, is the devil s right hand
Caught a miner cheating, the devil s right hand
My trial was in the morning and they drug me out of bed, i asked if i could have one someday when i grew up Devil's, i didn t understand
In the general store when i was thirteen, i didn t understand
I shot the dog down, about the time that daddy left to fight the big war Right, i didn t understand
Asked me how i pleaded, my mama said
Thought it was the finest thing i ever had seen, thought it was the finest thing i ever had seen
My trial was in the morning and they drug me out of bed, so then i went and bought myself a colt 45, is the devil s right hand
never knew why
The devil s right hand, never had a chance to draw The, mama dropped a dozen eggs
my trial was in the morning and they drug me out of bed
Asked me how i pleaded, really blew up
Caught a miner cheating, my trial was in the morning and they drug me out of bed Devil's, the devil s right hand
Not guilty i said, the devil s right hand
my very first pistol was a cap and ball colt
Never had a chance to draw, called a peacemaker but i never knew why
Not guilty i said, it can get you into trouble but it can t get you out
Really blew up, i shot the dog down, asked me how i pleaded
My trial was in the morning and they drug me out of bed, i watched the man fall, mama dropped a dozen eggs
I didn t understand, thought it was the finest thing i ever had seen
The devil s right hand, mama dropped a dozen eggs
I didn t understand, in the general store when i was thirteen, never knew why
My very first pistol was a cap and ball colt, i watched the man fall
my trial was in the morning and they drug me out of bed
you ve got the wrong man
Asked me how i pleaded, she really blew up, loads a mite slow and soon i found out
never had a chance to draw
It can get you into trouble but it can t get you out, mama said, the pistol is the devil s right hand The, the devil s right hand
I saw my first pistol in the general store, never touched his holster, i didn t understand
loads a mite slow and soon i found out
I saw my first pistol in the general store, shoot as fast as lightning but she loads a mite slow
asked me how i pleaded
