The devil went down to Scunthorpe
Looking for a soul to steal
In a bind and way behind
He was willin' to make a deal
When he came across this young man
Pickin' on a guitar, playing it hot
And the devil jumped on a hickory stump
And said I'll tell ya what
I guess you didn't know it, I'm a guitar player too
And if you care to take a dare
I'll make a bet with you
Now you play a real good guitar boy
But give the devil his due
I'll bet a guitar of gold to get your soul
'Cause I think I'm better than you
The boy said my name's Johnny, it might be a sin
I'll take your bet, you're gonna regret
I'm the best that's ever been
Johnny resin up your pick and play your guitar hard
'Cause hell is here in Scunthorpe
And the devil deals the cards
Now if you win you'll get this shinny guitar made of gold
But if you loose the devil gets your soul
The devil opened up his case and said I'll start this gig
And fire flew from his finger tips as he resined up his pick
He strummed the pick across the strings
It made an evil hiss
Then a band of demons joined in
And it sounded something like this
When the devil finished
Johnny said you're pretty good ol' son
But sit down in that chair right there
Let me show you how it's done
Fire on the mountain run boys run
Devil's in the house of the risin' sun
Chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough
Ready says you don't fight, no child, no
Let's go
The devil bowed his head
Because he knew that he'd been beat
He laid that golden guitar on the ground at Johnny's feet
Johnny said Devil come on back
If you ever want to try again
I told you once you son of a bitch
I'm the best I've ever been
Fire on the mountain run boys run
Devil's in the house of the risin' sun
Chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough
Ready says you don't fight, no child, no
Let's go
