erin9342

I like the radio version where he says "son of a gun" better-- the Devil doesn't have a mother. You can't insult his mother.

I'm looking for the fiddle music music for the devil went down to georgia. Does it just not exist?
good music
just saw charlie in concetr. he's still got it
towmater2000
this is the real version it says sun of a b**ch
Never heard this version before, because I've always heard the lyric "I told you once, you son of a gun..." instead of "son of a b***h".

I agree with others that the Devil's part sounds better.

The song in itself is amazing, but knock-offs like "The Devil Came Back to Georgia" and the "The Devil Went Down to Jamaica" are horrible. This seems to be a running theme with classic songs.
The Devil got gyped...
astew2008

The devil would never be caught dead in...Georgia a a a a . Like, oh my god!
marianne.szl y k
This song brings back memories!

Love this guy he puts on an amazin show if you get the chance you have to see him live
majepson08
hahahaah i love this song every time we go through georgia we belt this song and my fam hates it :)
I think the devils solo is better.

And oddly, this showed up on my "Limelight" station, which is created for songs similar to Rush's Limelight. Go figure.
"'The devil went down to Georgia, he was lookin' for a soul to steal' well that's f***ing bulls**t, I wouldn't be caught dead in *Georgia*"-S t e p h e n Lynch

they have this song on guitar hero! it's kinda awesome. :)
I always found it strange that the devil could be beaten. But then I realized he tempted Johnny with greed and the end result was Johnny's pride swelling. Perhaps the devil gets his soul anyway. And I bet the golden fiddle's cursed.
No I think it is pretty cool too! I like the fiddle!
