Charlie Daniels Band, The - Talk To Me Fiddle Lyrics
Well if this old fiddle could talk
If this old fiddle could sing
Man if this old fiddle could only talk
It could tell you some wondrous things
Talk to me fiddle
Tell me about when you came across the sea
In the hands of a Jewish immigrant who was longing to be free
And you were part of his life for forty years
Through times both lean and fat
As he raised his family and lived out his days
In a New York tenement flat
Talk to me fiddle
Tell me about how that Cajun fiddlin' man
Found you in a pawn shop and took you back down
You knew his wife and you knew his kids
And you watched his family grow
And you played your heart out Cajun style
At the Louisiana Fais Do Do
Well talk to me fiddle
Then a big shot Yankee gambler found you down in New Orleans
And took you up the river on the Mississippi Queen
Then there came the day that you were all
That he had left to lose
And a black man won you in a poker game
And taught you how to play the blues
Cry for me fiddle
The a young man from the mountains of Kentucky came along
And he bought you for a dollar
And took you all the way back home
He gave you to his grandpa on his golden wedding day
And the people would come from miles around just to hear the old man play
Dance for me fiddle
Then a hobo from Biloxi found you living in the rain
And he got himself a free ride on a west-bound cattle train
And you got off in Texas
Where they play that western swing
Where the people do the two-step
And old Bob Wills was the king
Swing for me fiddle
If this old fiddle could talk
If this old fiddle could sing
Man if this old fiddle could only talk
It could tell you some wondrous things
You've been bouncing around America from sea to shining sea
Now your traveling days are over fiddle 'cause you belong to me

KKona Brother
Does anyone know what he plays at the texas portion of the song?
Ending is the same as Devil Went Down to Georgia's ending. Huh.
Boshi Yoshi are you that dense?
Such an amazing song, to bad the “ music” world never even gave it a look.
just search fastest way mam/sir
What's the name of the tune the the Old Man From Kentucky plays at 2:12? Does anybody know? It's one of those old classic fiddle tunes that you hear all the time, but I've never known the name of it.
Charlie Harper I think it was originally just an old fiddle riff not an actual song but could be wrong. Carry me back to Virginia by Old Crow Medicine Crow really does that tune justice if you haven’t heard that one
I think it's Turkey in the Straw
If I'm not mistaken, it's Boil Them Cabbage Down.
I love it ❤️❤️❤️
What is the title of that theme at 0:39? I have wanted to listen to it, but I can never remember the title.
it's from a song called hava nagila
Best dad gum country song written!
+Buddy Brown Devil went down to Georgia is better
yall try and keep up with him,you can't do it
this is real country music
Song makes me emotional and I dunno why.
q buenas rolas las de CHARLIE DANIELS
I'd like to see a parody of this song based on the movie, "The Red Violin"! LMAO!!!
So creative.. love it!
If I had five years to say it better, I can't.
If ANYBODY can make a fiddle talk, it's Charlie Daniels.
he does make it talk
Rock fucking on!
He's still alive, just old.
TALK TO ME, FIDDLE!
I have searched high and low for this song on Youtube, pity can't find a clip of the man himself playing it. Brilliant brilliant song. Charlie Daniels, I hope one day you will get to come to Brisbane.........I would LOVE to see you play live.
