“The devil bowed his head because he knew that he’d been beat.

“He laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny’s feet.

“Johnny said, `Devil just come on back if you ever want to try again.

“I told you once you son of a bitch, I’m the best that’s ever been.”

Thats on my walking playlist, how sad R.I.P Charlie.

I think it's a shame that he never had a womb of his own, because he was pretty certain about what other people should do with theirs.

Sorry, yes I know. I like Devil Went Down To Georgia too.

Conflicted here.

Yeah, his politics were very much of the errr, traditional southern variety.
Some cracking tunes though

The Levellers do a cracking cover of The Devil went down to Georgia.

No they don't.

They certainly do. Particularly from a violinist's point of view. Mind you, Primus's version isn't bad, either.

RIP Charlie.
Always liked this one but it's a little too "southern" for most folks.
