Try this class mdl-typography--text-right, in this way, the contents in that cell will have an alignment of right:

<div class="mdl-cell mdl-cell--6-col mdl-typography--text-right">
    <div class="demo-card-wide mdl-card mdl-shadow--2dp">
        <div class="mdl-card__title">
            <h2 class="mdl-card__title-text">Welcome</h2>
        </div>
        <div class="mdl-card__supporting-text">
            Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
            Mauris sagittis pellentesque lacus eleifend lacinia...
        </div>
        <div class="mdl-card__actions mdl-card--border">
            <a class="mdl-button mdl-button--colored mdl-js-button mdl-js-ripple-effect">
                Get Started
            </a>
        </div>
        <div class="mdl-card__menu">
            <button class="mdl-button mdl-button--icon mdl-js-button mdl-js-ripple-effect">
                <i class="material-icons">share</i>
            </button>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

Vice versa: mdl-typography--text-center and mdl-typography--text-left also work.
