[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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, I didn't understand
Mama said, "The pistol is the devil's right hand"
[Chorus]
The devil's right hand
The devil's right hand
Mama said, "The pistol is the devil's right hand"
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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"
