[00:14.76]The devil went down to
[00:15.63]GeorgiaHe was lookin' for a soul to steal
[00:18.03]He was in a bind 'cause he was way behind
[00:19.86]And willing to make a deal
[00:21.45]When he came across one young man
[00:23.04]Sawing on a fiddle and playing it hot
[00:25.02]And the devil jumped up on a hickory stump
[00:26.76]And said, "Boy, let me tell you what""I bet you didn't know itBut I'm a fiddle player tooAnd if you'd care to take a dareI'll make a bet with you""Now you play pretty good fiddle, boyBut I'll give the devil his dueI bet a fiddle of gold against your soulI think I'm better than you"
[00:42.60]The boy said, "My name's JohnnyAnd it might be a sinBut I'll take your bet, you're gonna regretI'm the best that's ever been"
[00:49.62]Johnny you rosin up your bow
[00:51.21]And play your fiddle hard'
[00:52.38]Cause Hell's broke loose in
[00:54.27]GeorgiaAnd the devil deals the cards
[00:56.49]And if you win
[00:57.33]You get this shiny fiddle made of gold
[00:59.94]But if you lose
[01:00.87]The devil gets your soul
[01:17.28]The devil opened up his case
[01:18.90]And he said, "I'll start this show"
[01:20.67]And fire flew from his fingertips
[01:22.38]As he rosined up his bow
[01:24.09]And he pulled the bow across the strings
[01:25.98]It made an evil hiss
[01:27.63]Then a band of demons joined in
[01:29.31]And it sounded something like this
[01:58.86]When the devil finished,
[01:59.97]Johnny said"You're pretty good, old sonBut sit down in that chair right thereAnd let me show you how it's done"
[02:06.15]Fire on the mountain, run, boys, run
[02:09.60]Devil's in the house of the rising sun
[02:12.99]Chicken in the bread pan, pickin' out dough
[02:16.47]Granny does your dog bite, no, child, no
[02:23.43]The best that's ever been
[02:29.43]I'm the best that's ever been
[02:43.44]The devil bowed his head
[02:44.70]Because he knew that he'd been beat
[02:46.68]And he laid that golden fiddle
[02:48.15]On the ground at
[02:49.05]Johnny's feet
[02:50.37]Johnny said, 'Devil, come on backIf you ever want to try againI told you once, you son of a bitch'm the best that's ever been'
[02:56.61]Fire on the mountain, run, boys, run
[03:00.90]Devil's in the house of the rising sun
