Куплет 1 (Johnny Cash):
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
Куплет 2 (Willie Nelson):
So i
asked if i could have one some day when i grew up
Mama dropped a dozen eggs,she really blew
up
She really blew up and i didn't understand
Mama said the pistol is the devil's right
hand
Припев (все вместе):
The devil's
right hand,the
devil's right hand
Mama said
the pistol is the
devil's right hand
Куплет 3 (Kris Kristofferson):
My very
first pistol was a cap and ball colt
Shoots as fast as lightin' but it loads a mighty
slow
Loads a mighty slow and soon i found out
It can get you into trouble but it can't get you
out
Куплет 4 (Waylon Jennings):
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
'Cause Mama said the pistol is the devil's right
hand
Куплет 5:
(a tone higher)
Well i
got into a card game in a company town
Caught a miner cheating i shot the dog
down
Shot the dog down,watched the man 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
Припев (на тон выше):
The
devil's right hand,the
devils's right hand
Mama said
the pistol is the
devil's right hand
Mama said
the pistol is the devil's
right hand
