Verse 1
He was looking for his soul to steal
He was in a bind cause he
was way behind
He was willing to make a deal
When he came across this young man
Saw him on a fiddle and playing it hot
And the devil jumped up on a hickory stump
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 bet a fiddle of gold against your soul,
and it might be a sin.
But I'll take your bet,
and you're going to regret,
because I'm the best there's ever been.

The devil opened up his case
and he said, I'll start this show
And fire flew from his fingertips
as he rosin' up his bow
And he pulled that bow across the strings
and it made an evil hiss
And a band of demons joined in,
