The devil went down to Georgia-The Charlie Daniels Band

He was lookin' for a soul to steal

He was in a bind 'Cause he was way behind

And he was willin' to make a deal

When he came upon this young man

Sawin' on a fiddle and playin' 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 care to take a dare

I'll make a bet with you

Now you play a pretty good fiddle

Boy But give the devil his due

I'll 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 there's ever been

Johnny rosin 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 opened up his case And he said

I'll start this show

And fire flew from his fingertips As

He rosined up his bow

Then he pulled the bow across the

Strings And it made a

And 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

Just sit right in that chair right there

And let me show you how it's done

Fire on the Mountain Run boys run

The devil's in the House of the Rising Sun

Chicken in a bread pan picken' 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 againever wanna try

I done told you once you son of a

Bitch I'm the best there's ever been And he played

Fire on the Mountain Run boys run

The devil's in the House of the Rising Sun

Chicken in a bread pan picken' out dough

Granny does your dog bite No child no
