[00:06.737]Well, about the time my daddy left to fight the big war
[00:10.127]I saw my first pistol in the general store
[00:13.425]In the general store, when I was thirteen
[00:16.632]Thought it was the finest thing I ever had seen
[00:19.869]l asked, if I could have one when I grew up
[00:23.071]Mama dropped a dozen eggs and she really blew up
[00:26.127]She really blew up and I didn't understand
[00:29.621]Mama said, the pistol is the devil's right hand
[00:32.975]She really blew up and I didn't understand
[00:36.082]Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand
[00:39.292]The Devil's right hand, the devil's right hand
[00:42.502]Mama said, the pistol is the devil's right hand
[00:51.996]My very first pistol was a cap and ball Colt
[00:55.291]Shoot as fast as lightnin' but it loads a might slow
[00:58.426]It loads a mite slow and I soon found out
[01:01.711]It can get you into trouble but it can't get you out
[01:04.666]Then I went and bought myself a Colt 45
[01:07.794]Called a peacemaker but I didn't know why
[01:11.209]I never knew why and I didn't understand
[01:14.334]'Cause Mama said, the pistol is the devil's right hand
[01:17.588]I never knew why, I didn't understand
[01:20.659]Mama said, the pistol is the devil's right hand
[01:23.807]The devil's right hand, the devil's right hand
[01:27.051]Mama said, the pistol is the devil's right hand
[01:39.403]I got into a card game in a company town
[01:42.784]Caught a miner cheating and I shot the dog down
[01:45.964]Shot the dog down, watched the dog fall
[01:49.023]Never touched his holster, never had a chance to draw
[01:52.259]The trial was in the mornin' and they drug me out of bed
[01:55.279]Asked me how I pleaded, not guilty I said
[01:58.520]Not guilty I said, you've got the wrong man
[02:01.604]Nothing touched the trigger but the devil's right hand
[02:04.901]Not guilty I said, you've got the wrong man
[02:08.007]Nothing touched the trigger but the devil's right hand
[02:10.992]The devil's right hand, the devil's right hand
[02:14.191]Nothing touched the trigger but the devil's right hand
