Park Day

de places we go

Johnny went down into hell one night
He was hunting for the devil's throne
He beat around his name too long
Figured he'd claim his own

The flames were licking the cavern walls
The air was thick with sin
But he grinned and tuned his fiddle tie
Said devil let's begin

He laughed and said you're foolish son
You'll burn before you win
But he roused up that bow and said
We'll see who melts in sin

I ain't afraid of fire or brimstone
You can damn me if I lose
But I'm the best that's ever lived
Oh boy so go on light that fuse

Johnny was a hillbilly redneck
Meaner than a dog on myth
He said I beat every fiddle of breathing
Ain't nothing left on earth worth a test

So he loaded up his moonshine
And he swore one drunken yell
If the devil's still picking I'll find his ass
I'm heading straight to hell

Johnny went down to hell
He wasn't running scared
Said I came to take your fiddle boy
If you still got one spare
The devil grinned and said
Hot damn I've waited for this day
But I ain't playing country tunes down here
We melt the strings away

So the gates swung wide
The brimstone popped
And demons poured like beer
The devil stood there smiling
With the gobo slick and clear
Boy you talk big for a mortal man
But my fire's burned for years
Johnny spit and grinned
I'll smoke your ass and drink your flaming tears

Johnny went down to hell
He wasn't running scared
Said I came to take your fiddle boy
If you still got one spare
The devil grinned and said
Hot damn I've waited for this day
But I ain't playing country tunes down here
We melt the strings away

The devil drew his bow across
The pit began to roar
The walls of hell was shaking
Like a diesel engine's core

But Johnny's fire was meaner still
In that fiddle scream pure sin
He bent the notes till angels cried
And the devil's flame grew thin
Smoke rolled up from johnny strings
Ashes on his boots
He said hell's just another honky-tonk
And I'm the king of roots
The devil dropped that golden bow
And kicked throught the flame
Johnny took it tipped his hat said
Now you know my name
Johnny went down to hell
And he played that fire crane
He left the devil staring dumbstruck
In the glow of gasoline
He said keep your crown and kingdom
I just came to raise some hell
You'll hear my fiddle ringing
From the hollers down in hell
