The devil went down to Georgia The devil went down to Georgia O diabo foi para a Geórgia He was looking for a soul to steal He was looking for a soul to steal Ele estava procurando por uma alma para roubar And he was in a bind And he was in a bind Estava numa situação difícil 'Cause he was way behind 'Cause he was way behind Pois estava muito atrasado And was willin' to make a deal And was willin' to make a deal Então ele estava disposto a fazer um acordo When he came upon a boy playing on a fiddle When he came upon a boy playing on a fiddle Quando passou por este jovem and playin' it hot and playin' it hot Que tocava violino pra valer And the devil jumped up on a hickory stump and said, And the devil jumped up on a hickory stump and said, Pulou num tronco do castanheiro e disse "Boy let me tell you what "Boy let me tell you what "Garoto, deixa eu te falar I bet you didn't know it I bet you didn't know it Creio que não saiba but I'm a fiddle player too but I'm a fiddle player too Mas sou violinista também And if you care to take a dare And if you care to take a dare E se não se importar em aceitar um desafio I'll make a bet with you I'll make a bet with you Eu farei uma aposta com você Now you play a pretty good fiddle boy Now you play a pretty good fiddle boy Agora toque o violino bem, rapaz But give the devil his due But give the devil his due Mas dê ao Diabo seu crédito I'll bet a fiddle of gold against your soul I'll bet a fiddle of gold against your soul Eu apostarei um violino dourado pela a sua alma 'Cause I think I'm better than you" 'Cause I think I'm better than you" Porque eu acho que sou melhor que você" The boy said, "My name's Johnny The boy said, "My name's Johnny O garoto disse: O meu nome é Johnny And it might be a sin And it might be a sin E talvez isso possa ser um pecado But I'll take your bet, your gonna regret But I'll take your bet, your gonna regret Mas aceito sua aposta e você vai se arrepender 'Cause I'm the best that's ever been" 'Cause I'm the best that's ever been" Porque sou o melhor que já existiu!" Johnny rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard Johnny rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard Johnny ergueu seu arco e tocou muito o violino 'Cause hell's broke loose in Georgia 'Cause hell's broke loose in Georgia Porque o caos dominou a Geórgia And the devil deals the cards And the devil deals the cards E o Diabo tem as cartas And if you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold And if you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold E se você ganhar, terá esse violino feito de ouro But if you lose the devil gets your soul. But if you lose the devil gets your soul. Mas se perder, o Diabo terá a sua alma The devil opened up his case and he said, The devil opened up his case and he said, O Diabo abriu sua mala e disse "I'll start this show" "I'll start this show" "Vou começar o show" And fire flew from his fingertips And fire flew from his fingertips E fogo saiu da ponta de seus dedos As he rosined up his bow As he rosined up his bow Enquanto ele segurava o arco And he pulled the bow across the strings And he pulled the bow across the strings Passou-o pelas cordas And it made an evil hiss And it made an evil hiss E isso fez um som estridente Then a band of demons joined in Then a band of demons joined in Então uma banda de demônios apareceu And it sounded something like this And it sounded something like this E soava mais ou menos assim When the devil finished Johnny said When the devil finished Johnny said Quando o diabo acabou, Johnny disse "Well you're pretty good ol' son! "Well you're pretty good ol' son! "Você é bom mesmo, velho! But sit down in that chair right there But sit down in that chair right there Mas sente-se naquela cadeira ali And let me show you how it's done!" And let me show you how it's done!" E deixa eu te mostrar como é que se faz" Fire on the mountain, run boys run Fire on the mountain, run boys run (Fogo na montanha, corram garotos, corram! Devil's in the house of the rising sun Devil's in the house of the rising sun O Diabo está na casa do sol nascente Chickens in the breadpan, picking out dough Chickens in the breadpan, picking out dough A galinha na massa de pão ciscando farinha Granny does your dog bite? No, child, no Granny does your dog bite? No, child, no Vovó, seu cachorro morde? Não, criança, não!) The devil bowed his head The devil bowed his head O diabo baixou a cabeça, Because he knew that he'd been beat Because he knew that he'd been beat Pois sabia que havia perdido And he laid that golden fiddle And he laid that golden fiddle E então deixou o violino dourado On the ground at Johnny's feet On the ground at Johnny's feet Aos pés de Johnny Johnny said, "Devil, just come on back Johnny said, "Devil, just come on back Jonny disse: "Diabo, volte if you ever wanna try again. if you ever wanna try again. se quiser tentar de novo! I done told you once I done told you once Porque eu te disse uma vez You son-of-a-bitch You son-of-a-bitch Seu filho da puta I'm the best that's ever been!" I'm the best that's ever been!" Que sou o melhor que já existiu!" He played: He played: Ele tocou Fire on the mountain, run boys run Fire on the mountain, run boys run (Fogo na montanha, corram garotos, corram! Devil's in the house of the rising sun Devil's in the house of the rising sun O diabo está na casa do sol nascente Chickens in the breadpan, picking out dough Chickens in the breadpan, picking out dough A galinha na massa de pão escolhendo farinha Granny does your dog bite?
