The Charlie Daniels Band - The Devil Went Down to Georgia (live) Edit

And a band of demons joined in and it sounded something like this.

And fire flew from his fingertips as he rosined up his bow.

And he laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny's feet.

And he played:

And he pulled the bow across the strings and it made an evil hiss.

And if you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold

And if you'd care to take a dare I'll make a bet with you.

And the Devil jumped upon a hickory stump and said "Boy, let me tell you what."

And you're gonna regret 'cause I'm the best there's ever been."

But I'll take your bet

But if you lose the devil gets your soul.

But sit down in that chair right there and let me show you how it's done."

He was in a bind 'cause he was way behind.

He was lookin' for a soul to steal.

He was willing to make a deal

I'll bet a fiddle of gold against your soul 'cause I think I'm better than you."

Johnny said, "Devil, just come on back if you ever wanna try again

Johnny, rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard.

Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy, but give the Devil his due.

The boy said, "My name's Johnny, and it might be a sin

The Devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat.

The Devil opened up his case and he said, "I'll start this show."

The Devil went down to Georgia.

When he came across this young man sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot.

When the Devil finished, Johnny said, "Well, you're pretty good ol' son

'Cause Hell's broke loose in Georgia and the Devil deals the cards.

'Cause I've told you once you son of a bitch I'm the best there's ever been."

"Fire on the Mountain." Run, boys, run!

"Fire on the Mountain." Run, boys, run!

"I bet you didn't know it, but I'm a fiddle player, too.
