JackMeOff Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 ...to Georgia, he was looking for a soul to stealHe was in a bind, cause he was way behindAnd he was willing to make a dealWell he come across a young man sawing on a fiddle and he played it hotThe Devil jumped up on a hickory stumpAnd said "Boy, let me tell you whatIn case you didn't know it, I'm a fiddle player tooAnd if you care to make a dareI'll make a bet with youNow you play pretty good fiddle, son but give the Devil his dueI'll bet a fiddle of gold against your soulCause I think I'm better than you" Well the boy said "My name's Johnny, and it might be a sinBut I'll take your bet you're gonna regretCause I'm the best there's ever been"Johnny rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hardCause hell's broke loose in GeorgiaAnd the Devil deals the cardsAnd if you win you'll get this shiny fiddle made of goldBut if you lose the Devil gets your soulThe Devil opened up his case, and said, "I'll start this show"And fire flew from his finger tips as he rosined up his bowWhen he pulled that bow across the strings, it made an evil hissAnd a band of demons joined in, it sounded just like thisWhen the Devil finished, Johnny said, "Well you're pretty good old sonBut just sit down in that chair right there and let me show you how it's done"He played Fire on the Mountain, run, boys, runThe Devil's in the house with the rising sun, Chicken in the breadpan picking out dough, Granny does your dog bite, "No, child, no"The Devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beatAnd he laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny's feetAnd Johnny said, "Devil, come on back if you ever want to try againBut I told you once, you son of a bitch, I'm the best there's ever been!" ------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
