LYRICS:
Davy's hands were highly skilled at many different things
They'd play the mandolin and dance across those strings
A woman's willing body would melt within those hands
And countless hearts were broken throughout the western lands
He wore pearl-handles pistols and loved to juggle knives
They said he'd fought a dozen men and all had lost their lives
I'm told he rode with Jesse James in the bad old days
But trouble with some woman sent them separate ways
Women fell for Davy that much is surely true
And those caressing hands found many things to do
Davy's dexterous hands
He drifted down to Mexico so the story goes
But what became of Davy no-one really knows
Some say he got married -- settled down at last
Turned those hands to farming and buried all his past
Women fell for Davy that much is surely true
And those caressing hands found many things to do
Davy's dexterous hands
Davy's hands were surely blessed by some magic spell
It seemed for good or mischief they always served him well
A seventh son of a seventh son he had the charm for sure
He had the style and had the smile to open any door
Women fell for Davy that much is surely true
And those caressing hands found many things to do
Davy's dexterous hands
