About the time my daddy left to fight the big war,
Saw my first pistol in the general [B]
store, The general store, when I was thirteen,
Thought it was the [E] finest thing I ever had seen.
I asked if I could have one someday when I grew up,
Mama dropped a dozen eggs, but she really blew [B] up,
She really blew up, and I didn't understand,
Mama said the pistol [E] is the devil's right hand,
[A] The devil's right hand, [E] the devil's right hand,
[B] Mama said the pistol [E] is the devil's right hand.
_ _ _ _ _ My _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
very first pistol was a cap and ball coat,
Shoots light as lightning, but it loads [B] a man slow,
It loads a man slow, and I soon found out,
It gets you into trouble, [E] but it can't get you out,
And so then I went and bought myself a Colt .45,
All the peace and make a friend, I never [B] knew why,
I never knew why, I didn't understand,
Mama said the pistol [E] is the devil's right hand,
[A] The devil's right hand, [E] the devil's right hand,
[B] Mama said the pistol [E] is the devil's right hand,
[A] The devil's right hand, [E] the devil's right hand,
[B] Mama said the pistol [E] is the devil's right hand.

I'd gotten through a car game in a Cumberland town,
Caught a minor cheating and I shot the dog down,
[C#] Shot the dog down, what's the man for?
Never touched his holster, [F#] 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, [C#] I _ _ _ said,
You got the wrong man, nothing touch the trigger,
But [F#] the devil's right hand,
[B] The devil's right hand, [F#] the devil's right hand,
[C#] Nothing touch the trigger but [F#] the devil's right hand,
[B] The devil's right hand, [F#] the devil's right hand,
[C#] Nothing touch the trigger but [F#] the devil's right hand,
[B] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
[C#] Mama said the pistol [F#] is the devil's right hand.
