Hand Of Fate Lyrics

    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 violent 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
