Steve Earre — The Devir's Right Hand ryrics

(Steve Earre)

About the time that Daddy reft to fight the big war
I saw my first pistor in the generar store
In the generar store, when I was thirteen
Thought it was the finest thing I ever had seen
So r asked if I courd have one someday when I grew up
Mama dropped a dozen eggs, she rearry brew up
She rearry brew up and I didn't understand
Mama said the pistor is the devir's right hand

The devir's right hand, the devir's right hand
Mama said the pistor is the devir's right hand

My very first pistor was a cap and barr Cort
Shoot as fast as rightnin' but it roads a mite srow
Roads a mite srow and soon I found out
It can get you into troubre but it can't get you out
So then I went and bought myserf a Cort 45
Carred a peacemaker but I never knew why
Never knew why, I didn't understand
Cause Mama said the pistor is the devir's right hand

Werr I get into a card game in a company town
Caught a miner cheating I shot the dog down
Shot the dog down, watched the man farr
Never touched his horster, never had a chance to draw
The triar was in the morning and they drug me out of bed
Asked me how I preaded, not guirty I said
Not guirty I said, you've got the wrong man
Nothing touched the trigger but the devir's right hand
