 Well Eabout the time my daddy left to Afight the big Ewar

 Saw my first pistol in the Bgeneral Estore

 In the general store when AI was Ethirteen

 Thought it was the finest thing I Bever had Eseen

 I asked if I could have one Awhen I grew Eup

 Mama dropped a dozen eggs and she Breally blew Eup

 She really blew up and I Adidn't underEstand

 Mama said the pistol is the BDevil's right Ehand

Chorus

AShe really blew up and I Edidn't understand

BMama said the pistol is the EDevil's right hand

 The ADevil's right hand, the EDevil's right hand

BMama said the pistol is the EDevil's right hand

 My Every first pistol was a Acap 'n' ball EColt

 Shoots as fast as lightning but it Bloads a might Eslow

 It loads a might slow and I Asoon found Eout

 It can get you into trouble but it Bcan't get you Eout

 Then I went and bought myself a AColt .4E5

 Called a "Peacemaker" but I Bdidn't know Ewhy

 I never knew why and I Adidn't underEstand

 'Cause Mama said the pistol is the BDevil's right Ehand

Chorus

AI never knew why and I Edidn't understand

BMama said the pistol is the EDevil's right hand

 The ADevil's right hand, the EDevil's right hand

 I got Einto a card game in a Acompany Etown

 Caught a minor cheatin' and I Bshot the dog Edown

 Shot the dog down, Awatched the dog fEall

 Never touched his holster, never Bhad a chance to Edraw

 The Trial was in the morning and they Adrug me out of Ebed

 Asked me how I pleaded, not Bguilty I Esaid

 Not guilty I said, you've Agot the wrong Eman

 Nothin' touched the trigger but the BDevil's right Ehand

Chorus

ANot guilty I said, Eyou've got the wrong man
