Song by Steve Ouimette<br /><br>

The devil went down to Georgia, he was looking for a soul to steal.<br>

He was in a bind 'cos he was way behind: he was willin' to make a deal.<br>

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

And the devil jumped upon a hickory stump and said: "Boy let me tell you what: <br>

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

"And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you.<br>

"Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy, but give the devil his due:<br>

"I bet a fiddle of gold against your soul, 'cos I think I'm better than you."<br>

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

"But I'll take your bet, your gonna regret, 'cos I'm the best that's ever been."<br>

<br>

Johnny you rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard.<br>

'Cos hells broke loose in Georgia and the devil deals it hard.<br>

And if you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold.<br>

But if you lose, the devil gets your soul. <br>

<br>

The devil opened up his case and he said: "I'll start this show."<br>

And fire flew from his fingertips as he resined up his bow. <br>

And he pulled the bow across his strings and it made an evil hiss. <br>

Then a band of demons joined in and it sounded something like this.<br>

When the devil finished, Johnny said: "Well you're pretty good ol' son.<br>

"But if you'll sit down in that chair, right there, and let me show you how its done." <br>

<br>

Fire on the moun, run boys, run.<br>

The devil's in the house of the risin' sun.<br>

Chicken in the bread pin, pickin' out dough.<br>

"Granny, does your dog bite?"<br>

"No, child, no."<br>

<br>

The devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat.<br>

He laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny's feet.<br>

Johnny said: "Devil just come on back if you ever want to try again.<br>

"I told you once, you son of a bitch, I'm the best that's ever been."<br>

<br>

And he played fire on the mount, run boys, run.<br>

The devil's in the house of the risin' sun.<br>

Chicken in the bread pin pickin' out dough.<br>

"Granny, does your dog bite?"<br>

"No, child, no." <br>
