In a general store, when I was thirteen

Thought it was the finest thing I ever had seen

So I asked if I could have one someday when I grew up

Mama dropped a dozen eggs she really blew up

She really blew up, she didn't understand

Mama said the pistol was the devil's right hand

*Interlude*
G
Got into a card game in a crumbling town
G D
Caught a miner cheating so I shot the dog down
D
Shot the dog down, watched the man fall
D G
Never touched his holster, never had a chance to draw
G
The trial was in the morning and they drug me out of bed
G D
Asked me how I pleaded, not guilty I said
D
Not guilty I said, you've got the wrong man
D G
Nothing touched the pistol but the devil's right hand
C
The devil's right hand
G C G
The devil's right hand
D G
Nothing touched the trigger but the devil's right hand
