The hand of fate is on me now
|
It pick me up and knock me down
|
I'm on the run, I'm prison bound
|
The hand of fate is heavy now
|
I killed a man, I'm highway bound
|
The wheel of fortune keeps turning round
|
Turning round, turning round
|
I should have known it was a one horse town
|
|
My sweet girl was once his wife
|
He had papers the judge had signed
|
The wind blew hard, it was stormy night
|
He shot me once, but I shot him twice
|
The hand of fate is on me now
|
It pick me up and it kicked me right down
|
Kicked me right down
|
Kicked me right down
|
|
I had to save her life
|
Yeah, I gunned him twice
|
Yeah, and I watched him die, watch out boy
|
Yeah, I watched him die
|
|
He was a barroom man, the violendt kind
|
He had no love for that gal of mine
|
Then one day in a drinking bout
|
He swore he'd throw me right of town
|
The hand of fate is on me now
|
I shot that man I put him underground
|
I put him underground
|
Yes I did
|
|
I'm on the run, I hear the hounds
|
My luck is up, my chips are down
|
So goodbye baby, so long now
|
Wish me luck, I'm going to need it child
|
The hand of fate is on me now
|
Yeah it's too late
|
Too late baby, too late now
|
The hand of fate is on me now
|
The hand of fate is heavy now
|
|
It pick you up and knock you down
|
