Devil Down For The Two Count Poem by Ima Ryma

Devil Down For The Two Count

Rating: 5.0


'Devil went down to Georgia' and
With young Johnny did make a bet,
Song sung by Charlie Daniels Band.
Young Johnny fiddled to all get,
And got the devil to back down,
A loser in their fiddlin' game,
And had to head back to hell town.
The next chance for the devil came
When years later old Johnny died.
Back to Georgia, devil with goal
To take Johnny to the dark side.
But angels grabbed old Johnny's soul.

In heaven, Johnny's fiddlin' strong.
Even God is hummin' along.

Such a great and wonderful tribute to a song that I've been listening to for ages. And what a very unique and creative way to present Satan Versus God. Absolutely brilliant!
