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 'Cause my sweet girl, was once his wife And he had papers, that 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, whoo He was a barroom man, the violent kind He had no love, for that girl 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 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 And wish me luck, I'm gonna need it, child The hand of fate is on me now Yeah, it's too late I will say Too late baby, too late now The hand of fate is on me now (No way now, I say) The hand of fate is heavy now (is so heavy now) The hand of fate (is so heavy now) Heavy now How don't know how It's too late, too late now The hand of fate is heavy now Pick you up, and it knock you down
