lirik lagu thomas mac - johnny went down to hell (feat. diana daw & philip bowen)
[verse 1]
well, johnny went down to h~ll after old age took his life
i guess gambling on the fiddle didn’t leave him on the lord’s good side
the devil met him at h~ll’s gates and screamed “johnny, come on in!
i got a special place down here for the best that’s ever been.”
[verse 2]
johnny said, “not so fast there, scrats; i got a bet for you.”
the devil said, “i got your soul, ol’ man, so what you wanna do?”
“well, you’ve been down here forty years just waiting for me to die
and i don’t want nothing less than to lеave here with my lifе.”
the devil laughed right in his face and said, “i’ll sweeten the pie
not only will i keep your soul, i’ll take georgia as my prize.”
[chorus]
johnny, take this lightning bolt for your fiddle bow
’cause the devil’s dealing dirty and your fingers have grown old
if you win, you’ll get your life back and another tale to tell
but if you lose, all of georgia goes to h~ll
[verse 3]
well, johnny said, “you got the honors there, king of lies.”
and the devil played a note so rancid even the darkness cried
belphegor and abaddon grabbed their strings and they joined in
and they played a tune that burned and grew ~ and it sounded just like
sin
[verse 4]
when the devil finished, johnny’s golden fiddle began to glow
and he sn~tched it up and struck it pure with his lightning bolt
all the devil’s demons, they let out a wretched scream
as they watched johnny’s fingers burning up them fiddle strings!
[bridge]
when johnny finished, the devil said, “tell me, why must we fight?
imagine the h~ll you can raise with me there by your side.”
johnny looked up from his bow with a crooked grin and said
“satan, you still ain’t got nothing on the best that’s ever been.”
[verse 5]
now johnny got another shot at life on that good free georgia land
and if you ask me, that’s pretty good for a gambling, fiddling man
the moral is: “don’t take a devil’s deal, no matter what the bet ~ unless, of course, if your name is johnny. the devil ain’t beat him yet.”
