Daniels Charlie - Devil Went Down To Georgia
[00:17]The devil went down to Georgia
[00:18]He was looking for a soul to steal
[00:19]And he was in a bind
[00:20]'Cause he was way behind
[00:22]And was willin' to make a deal
[00:23]When he came upon a boy playing on a fiddle
[00:26]and playin' it hot
[00:27]And the devil jumped up on a hickory stump and said,
[00:28]"Boy let me tell you what:
[00:30]I bet you didn't know it
[00:31]but I'm a fiddle player too,
[00:33]And if you care to take a dare
[00:35]I'll make a bet with you
[00:37]Now you play a pretty good fiddle boy
[00:39]But give the devil his due
[00:41]I'll bet a fiddle of gold against your soul
[00:42]'Cause I think I'm better than you."
[00:45]The boy said, "My name's Johnny
[00:46]And it might be a sin
[00:48]But I'll take your bet, your gonna regret
[00:49]'Cause I'm the best that's ever been."
[00:51]Johnny rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard
[00:55]'Cause hell's broke loose in Georgia
[00:56]And the devil deals the cards
[00:58]And if you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold
[01:02]But if you lose the devil gets your soul.
[01:14]The devil opened up his case and he said,
[01:15]"I'll start this show."
[01:17]And fire flew from his fingertips
[01:18]As he rosined up his bow
[01:20]And he pulled the bow across the strings
[01:22]And it made an evil hiss
[01:24]Then a band of demons joined in
[01:25]And it sounded something like this
[01:30]
[02:04]When the devil finished Johnny said,
[02:05]"Well you're pretty good ol' son!
[02:07]But sit down in that chair right there
[02:09]And let me show you how it's done!"
[02:10]Fire on the mountain, run boys run
[02:13]Devil's in the house of the rising sun
[02:17]Chickens in the breadpan, picking out dough
[02:20]Granny does your dog bite? No, child, no
[02:26]
[02:42]The devil bowed his head
[02:46]Because he knew that he'd been beat,
[02:48]And he laid that golden fiddle
[02:50]On the ground at Johnny's feet
[02:52]Johnny said, "Devil, just come on back
[02:53]if you ever wanna try again.
[02:55]I done told you once,
[02:56]You son-of-a-bitch,
[02:57]I'm the best that's ever been!"
[03:13]
[02:58]He played:
[02:59]Fire on the mountain, run boys run
[03:02]Devil's in the house of the rising sun
[03:06]Chickens in the breadpan, picking out dough
[03:09]Granny does your dog bite? No, child, no
