SONG:The Devil Went Down To Georgia
The devil went down to georgia he was lookin' for a soul to steal he was in a bind 'cause he was way behind and he was willing to make a deal When he came across this young man sawing on a fiddle and playing it hot and the devil jumped up on a hickory stump and said, "boy let me tell you what "i guess you didn't know it but i'm a fiddle player too and if you'd care to take a dare i'll make a bet with you" "now you play pretty good fiddle, son but give the devil his due i bet a fiddle of gold against your soul 'cause i think i'm better than you" The boy said "my name's johnny and it might be a sin but i'll take your bet and you're gonna regret 'cause i'm the best that's ever been" Johhny you resin up your bow and play your fiddle hard 'cause hell's broke loose in georgia and the devil deals the cards And if you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold but if you lose the devil gets your soul The devil openned up his case and he said "i'll start this show" and fire flew from his fingertips as he resined up his bow And he pulled the bow across the strings and it made an evil hiss then a band of demons joined in and it sounded something like this When the devil finished johnny said "well you're pretty good, old son but sit down in that chair right there and let me show you how its done" {refrain} fire on the mountain, run boys run the devil's in the house of the rising sun chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough granny does your dog bite, no child no The devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat and he laid that golden fiddle on the ground at johnny's feet Johnny said "devil, just come on back if you ever want to try again but i told you once, you son of a bitch i'm the best that's ever been" He played fire on the mountain, run boys run the devil's in the house of the rising sun chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough granny does your dog bite, no child no
