| [00:18.84] |
The devil went down to Georgia He was lookin' for a soul to steal |
| [00:20.96] |
He was in a bind 'Cause he was way behind And he was willin' to make a deal |
| [00:24.23] |
When he came upon this young man Sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot |
| [00:27.22] |
And the devil jumped Up on a hickory stump And said boy let me tell you what |
| [00:31.05] |
I guess you didn't know it but I'm a fiddle player too |
| [00:33.89] |
And if you care to take a dare I'll make a bet with you |
| [00:37.14] |
Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy But give the devil his due |
| [00:40.30] |
I'll bet a fiddle of gold Against your soul 'Cause I think I'm better than you |
| [00:43.86] |
The boy said my name's Johnny And it might be a sin |
| [00:46.74] |
But I'll take your bet And you're gonna regret 'Cause I'm the best there's ever been |
| [00:50.14] |
Johnny rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard |
| [00:53.23] |
Cause hell's broke loose in Georgia and the devil deals the cards |
| [00:56.65] |
And if you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold |
| [00:59.97] |
But if you lose the devil gets your soul. |
| [01:10.55] |
The devil opened up his case And he said I'll start this show |
| [01:13.27] |
And fire flew from his fingertips As he rosined up his bow |
| [01:16.36] |
Then he pulled the bow across the strings And it made a evil hit |
| [01:18.96] |
And a band of demons joined in And it sounded something like this |
| [02:37.64] |
When the devil finished Johnny said well you're pretty good old son |
| [02:41.28] |
Just sit right in that chair right there And let me show you how it's done |
| [02:44.72] |
Fire on the Mountain Run boys, run |
| [02:47.88] |
The devil's in the House of the Rising Sun |
| [02:50.72] |
Chicken in a bread pan picken' out dough |
| [02:53.90] |
Granny does your dog bite No child, no |
| [05:28.13] |
The devil bowed his head Because he knew that he'd been beat |
| [05:30.95] |
And he laid that golden fiddle On the ground at Johnny's feet |
| [05:34.06] |
Johnny said, Devil just come on back If you ever wanna try again |
| [05:37.17] |
I done told you once you son of a bitch I'm the best there's ever been And he played |
| [05:40.90] |
Fire on the Mountain Run boys, run |
| [05:43.99] |
The devil's in the House of the Rising Sun |
| [05:46.64] |
Chicken in a bread pan picken' out dough |
| [05:50.18] |
Granny does your dog bite No child, no |
