The Devil Went Down to Georgia (魔鬼走进乔治亚州) - Charlie Daniels
Written by:Charlie Daniels/Tom Crain/Taz DiGregorio/Fred Edwards/Charlie Hayward/Jim Marshall
The devil went down to Georgia
He was lookin' for a soul to steal
He was in a bind cause he was way behind
He was willing to make a deal
When he came across this young man sawin' on a fiddle
And playin' it hot
And the devil jumped upon a hickory stump and said
Boy let me tell you what
I bet 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 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
And he pulled the bow across the strings
And it made an evil hiss
And a band of demons joined in
And it sounded something like this
When the devil finished Johnny said
Well you're pretty good ol' son
But sit down 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's in the bread pan picking out dough
Granny does your dog bite no child no
The devil bowed his head
Because he knew that he'd been beat
He laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny's feet
Johnny said
Devil just come on back if you ever wanna try again
Cause I've told you once you son of a B***h
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's in the bread pan picking out dough
Granny and your dog bite no child no
