Emerson Drive - Devil Went Down To Georgia Lyrics
The devil went down to Georgia
He was lookin' for a soul to steal
He was in a bind cause he was way behind
And he was willin' to make a deal
When he came across this young man
And the devil jumped up on a hickory stump
And said "Boy let me tell you what
I guess you didn't know it boy
I'm a fiddle player too
And if you care to take a dare
Well I'll make a bet with you
Now you play pretty good fiddle, boy,
But give the devil his due
I'll bet a fiddle of gold against your soul
The boy said, "My name's Johnny,
And it just might be a sin
But I'll take this bet, you're gonna regret,
I'm the best that's ever been
Johnny rosin up your bow
And play your fiddle hard
Hell broke loose in Georgia
And the devil deals his 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 he said, "I'll start this show"
And fire flew from his fingertips
As he rosined up his bow
When he pulled the bow across the strings
And it made an evil hiss
And a band of demons joined it
And it sounded somethin' like this
Here we go
When the devil finished Johnny said,
“Well, you're pretty good old son
But sit down in that chair right there
And let me show you how it's done"
Fire on the mountain
Run, boys, run
The devil's in the house of the rising sun
Chicken in the bread pan pickin' 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
Johnny said, "Devil, come on back
If you ever want to try again
I done told you once you son of a gun,
I'm the best that's ever been"
Fire on the mountain
Run, boys, run
The devil's in the house of the rising sun
Chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough
Granny does your dog bite
No child no

Why is that guitar riff from Led Zeppelin's Kashmir being used here?
It makes this song even more badass!!!
Love this cover ! Amazing job !
Well it is music its kinda suppose to be sung
I like their rendition, I just wish he wouldn't sing the lines. He's got a powerful speaking voice too and it just sounds weird sung.
