Lyrics Devil's Right Hand - Johnny Cash
Well
about
the
time
my
Daddy
left
to
fight
the
big
war
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
when
I
grew
up
Mama
dropped
a
dozen
eggs
and
she
really
blew
up
She
really
blew
up
and
I
didn't
understand
Mama
said
the
pistol
is
the
devil's
right
hand
She
really
blew
up
and
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
lightnin'
but
it
loads
a
mite
slow
It
loads
a
mite
slow
and
I
soon
found
out
It
can
get
you
into
trouble
but
it
can't
get
you
out
Then
I
went
and
bought
myself
a
Colt
.45
Called
a
Peacemaker
but
I
didn't
know
why
I
never
knew
why
and
I
didn't
understand
'Cause
Mama
said
the
pistol
is
the
devil's
right
hand
I
never
knew
why,
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
I
got
into
a
card
game
in
a
company
town
Caught
a
miner
cheating
and
I
shot
the
dog
down
Shot
the
dog
down,
watched
the
dog
fall
Never
touched
his
holster,
never
had
a
chance
to
draw
The
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
Not
guilty,
I
said,
you've
got
the
wrong
man
Nothing
touched
the
trigger
but
the
devil's
right
hand
The
devil's
right
hand,
the
devil's
right
hand
Nothing
touched
the
trigger
but
the
devil's
right
hand
