The Devil went down to Georgia,
Cause she was looking for soul to steel,
She was in a dime she was way behind and she was willing to make a deal,
When she came across this young man sawing on a fiddle,
And playing it hot,
The Devil jumped onto 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 care to take a dare, then I'll make a bet with you."
"Now you play a pretty good fiddle son but give the Devil her due,
I bet a fiddle of gold against your soul cause I think I'm better than you."
