Hand Of Fate
(Jagger/Richards)
The hand of fate is on me now
It picked me up and it knocked me down
I'm on the run I'm Prison bound
The hand of fate is a heavy now
I killed a man
I'm highway bound
The wheel of fortune keeps turning round
Keeps a turning round
Keeps a 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 a stormy night
He shot me once but I shot him twice
The hand of fate is on me now
It picked me up and it kicked me right down
It kicked me right down
It kicked me right down
I had 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
And then one day in a drinkin bout
He swore he'd throw me right out of town
The hand of Fate is on me now
I shot that man
I put him underground
I put him underground
I put him underground
Yes I did
I'm on the run
I hear the hounds
My luck is up
The 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 baby it's too late baby
It's too late now
Oh yeah mm yeah
Yes it is
The hand of fate hangs a heavy now
It's a heavy now
Heavy Now
The hand of fate is a heavy now
It picked me up and it knocked me down
It picked me up and it knocked me down
