Who sings Devil went down to Georgia?

Answer 1

The Devil Went Down to Georgia

by:

Charlie Daniels Band

The devil went down to Georgia

He was looking for a soul to steal

He was in a bind

'Cause he was far behind

And he was willing to make a deal

When he came upon this young man

Sawing on a fiddle and playing it hot

And the Devil jumped

Up on a hickory stump

And said, '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 a pretty good fiddle, boy

But give the devil his due

I'll be 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 that's ever been!'

Johnny rosin' up your bow and play that 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 said, 'I'll start the show'

And fire flew from his fingertips

As his rosined up his bow

Then he pulled his bow across the strings

And it made an evil hiss

And then a band of demons joined in

And it sounded something like this

[Instrumental]

When the devil finished

Johnny said, 'Well, you're pretty good old son

Just sit right in that chair right there

And let me show you how it's done!'

He played Fire on the Mountains

Run boys, run

The devil's in the House of the Rising Sun

Chicken in a bread pan picking out dough

Granny does your dog bite?

No child, no

[Instrumental]

The devil bowed his head

Because he knew that he'd been beat

And he laid that golden fiddle

On the ground at Johnny's feet

Johnny said, 'Devil come back if you ever wanna try again

I done told you once you son of a b**ch

I'm the best that's ever been!'

He played Fire on the Mountain

Run boys, run

Devil's in the House of the Rising Sun

Chicken in a bread pan picking out dough

Granny does your dog bite?

No child, no

[Instrumental to finish]
