paroles de chanson Devil Went Down to Georgia - Remastered - Lynn Anderson

Well the Devil went down to Georgia
He was lookin' for a soul to steal
He was way behind and he was in a bind
And he was looking to make a deal

When he came across this young man
Sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot
And the Devil jumped upon a hickory stump
And said "Boy, let me tell you what."

"I bet you didn't know it"
"but I'm a fiddle player, too"
"And if you'd care to take a dare"
"well, I'll make a bet with you"

"Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy"
"but give the Devil his due"
"I'll bet a fiddle of gold against your soul"
"'cause I think I'm better than you"

Now 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 there's ever been"

Johnny, rosin' up your bow
And play your 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

Well the Devil opened up his case
And he said, "I'll start this show."
And fire flew from his fingertips
As he rosined up that bow

And he dragged the 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, that's pretty good ol' son"
"But just sit down there, in that easy chair"
"and let me show you how it's done", he played

Fire on the Mountain, Run, boys, run
The Devil's in the house, of the rising sun
Chicken's in the bread pan picking out dough
Granny, does your dog bite? "No, child, no"

Well 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

And he said, "Devil, just come on back"
"if you ever wanna try again"
"And I've told you once, you son of a gun"
"I'm the best there's ever been"

Fire on the Mountain, Run, boys, run!
The Devil's in the house of the rising sun
Chicken's in the bread pan picking out dough
Granny, does your dog bite? "No, child, no"
