| About the time that Daddy left to fight the big war |
| I saw my first pistol in the general store |
| In the general store when I was thirteen |
| Thought it was the finest thing I ever had seen |
| I asked if I could have one someday when I grew up |
| Mama dropped a dozen eggs, she really blew up |
| Really blew up, I didn’t understand |
| Mama said,"The pistol is the devil’s right hand" |
| The devil’s right hand |
| The devil’s right hand |
| Mama said, «The pistol |
| Is the devil’s right hand» |
| My very first pistol was a cap and ball Colt |
| Shoot as fast as lightning but she loads a mite slow |
| Loads a mite slow and soon I found out |
| It can get you into trouble but it can’t get you out |
| So then I went and bought myself a Colt 45 |
| Called a Peacemaker but I never knew why |
| Never knew why, I didn’t understand |
| Mama said, «The pistol is the devil’s right hand» |
| Well I get into a card game in a company town |
| Caught a miner cheating, I shot the dog down |
| Shot the dog down, I watched the man fall |
| Never touched his holster, never had a chance to draw |
| My trial was in the morning and they drug me out of bed |
| Asked me how I pleaded, «Not guilty» I said |
| «Not guilty», I said, you’ve got the wrong man |
| Nothing touched the trigger but the devil’s right hand |
| My Mama said, «The pistol |
| Is the devil’s right hand» |
