Song lyrics
The Devil went down to Georgia 
He was looking 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 sawing on a fiddle and playing it hot
The devil jumped up on a hickory stump and said
Boy let me tell you what
I guess you didnt know it 
But im a fiddle player too
And if you care to take a dare
Ill make a bet with you
Now you play pretty good fiddle boy
But give the devil his due
I bet a fiddle of gold
Against your soul to think im better than you
The boy said my names Johnny
And it might be a sin but 
Ill take your bet you're gonna regret cause im the best theres ever been

(chorus)
Johnny rosin up your bow and play that fiddle hard 
Cause hells broke loose in georgia
And the devil deals the cards 
And if you win you'll get this shiny fiddle made of gold 
But if u lose the devil gets your soul

The devil opened up his case
And said ill start this show
And fire flew from his finger tips  as he rosined up his bow
And he pulled his 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 ur pretty good ol son just sit down it that chair right  there
And let me show you how its done

(chorus)
Fire in the mountain run boys run the devils in the house of the rising sun 
Chicken in the breadpan picking out dough
Granny will your dog bite no child no.

The Devil bowed his head cause he knew hed been beat
He layed that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnnys feet
Johnny said Devil just come on back
If you ever wanna try again 
Cause i told you once you son of a bitch
I'm the best theres ever been

(chorus)

(fiddling till end)
