Here's one for Reid, now I have to find one for you...

The Devil Went Down To Georgia

The devil went down to Georgia
He was looking for a soul to steal
And he was in a bind
'Cause he was way behind
And was willin' to make a deal.

When he came upon this young man playing
a fiddle and playin' it hot
the devil jumped up on 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
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."



The boy said, "My name's Johnny
And it might be a sin
But I'll take your bet, your gonna regret
'Cause I'm the best that's ever been."

Johnny you 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.

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
And he pulled the bow across the strings
And it made an evil hiss
Then a band of demons joined in
And it sounded something like this

When the devil finished Johnny said,
"Well you're pretty good ol' 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
Devil's in the house of the rising sun
Chickens in the breadpan, picking out dough
Granny does your dog bite? No, child, no



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, just come on back
if you ever wanna try again.
I done told you once,
You son-of-a-bitch,
I'm the best that's ever been!"

He played:
Fire on the mountain, run boys run
Devil's in the house of the rising sun
Chickens in the breadpan, picking out dough
Granny does your dog bite? No, child, no.

And here's yours!!!!

A Country Party

Just down the road not far from me
There's a party goin on
Singin', shoutin', dancin' & fun
All out on the lawn

People came from all around
And things got out of hand
They dipped and danced crazily
To the Cowpie Paddy Band.

Now Grandpa he got loaded
Cause he had to much to drink
He didn't plan to do it
But he didn't stop to think

The outhouse had a waiting line
But Grandpa had to go
So he slipped behind the old red barn
And tinkled on his toe.

The cows and pigs were watching
And Grandpa blushed bright pink
Once again Grandpa's caught
And ole' Grandma gave a wink

She ran and got her rolling pin
To straighten Grandpa out
She was just about to bop him
When the guests began to shout.

Grab a hose, grab a bucket
Shouted Grandpa to the crowd
The outhouse is on fire
Let's get the thing put out!
