Devil went down to Georgia he was lookin for a soul to steal! He was in a bind cuz he was way behind and he was willin to make a deal! He came across this young man playin the fiddle and he was playin it hot.
So the Devil Jumped on a hickory stump and 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 pretty good fiddle boy but give the devil is do I bet a fiddle of gold against your soul to say I’m better than you! The boy says my name Johnny and it might be a sin but I’ll take that bet your going to regret! Cuz I’m the best that’s ever been! Johnny raisin up your bow and play your fiddle hard cuz hell broke loose in Georgia and the devil deals the cards! If you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold but if you loose the devil gets your soul! Devil opened up his case and said I’ll start this show and fire grew from his finger tips as he rasied up his bow he pulled the bow across the strings and it made an evil hiss then a band of demons joined in! Devil finished and Johnny said your pretty good ole son but sit right there in that there chair and I’ll show how this stuff is done! Fire and in the mountain and the youg boys run! Devil’s in the house of the risin sun. Chickens in that back yard picken up dough! Were runnin to down that’s way down low!
The Devil bowed his head cuz he knew that he’d been beat! So he layed that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny’s feet! Johnny said Devil you ome on back when ever you want to try again! Cuz I told you once you son of a bitch I’M the best there’s ever been!
