THE DEVIL WENT DOWN TO NEW YORK CITY

Posted on 11/01/2001 6:37:15 AM PST by Texas Mom

THE DEVIL WENT DOWN TO NEW YORK CITY" (sang to Charlie Daniels song "The Devil Went Down to Georgia")

The devil came down on NYC
he was lookin for souls to steal
and he was in a bind
cause he was way behind
with an Arab he'd made a deal

When he killed our own on American soil
we knew it was an evil plot
Bush stepped upon that podium
said boy let me tell you what:

I bet you didn't know it
but we got plans of our own too
And if you care to take a dare
I'll make a bet with you.

You may have begun this battle boy,
but give America it's due
we're gonna find you no matter where you go we'll win this war against you.

The Marine said:

my name is Johnny
this is where I come in
I'm part of this bet your gonna regret cause we're the best that's ever been.

Air Force load up our planes and bomb those Arabs hard
Cause hell's broke loose in America Bush called out the National Guard.

And when we win you'll not see those shiny streets of gold
you'll have lost, now the devils' got your soul.

The Navy jumped on our ships and said:
"we'll start this show"
fire flew from there turrets
as they struck a mighty blow.

The Army marched across the sands
and they made an evil hiss
then a band of volunteers joined in
and it sounded something like this.

When you attacked America you said
"look what I have done"
but just cower there in your hole
and let our soldiers show you how it's done.

Fire in the towers run boys run
America was attacked at the rising sun
terrorism's always been a faceless foe
it's gonna be a dogfight don't cha'll know.

The devil bowed his head
cause he knew that he'd been beat
and he realized our American spirit he can not defeat
Bush said: Devil just come on back
if you ever wanna try again....
I done told you once
you son-of-a-gun
America's the best it's ever been!!!!

Loved the original, and I like this one.

Although, I seem to recall that the original was a little spicier in its language at the end...

Yeah, but it was Charlie himself that changed the language at the end. On his album "Tailgate Party" he sings this live and says "son-of-gun". I believe he changed it when he as born again, I don't know when exactly that was though.

Here's a quote from the site:

"I am anti-abortion, pro-life, pro Christian, anti socialism and I believe that everybody in this nation should learn to speak English, simply because they'll never be able to truly assimilate into this society without doing so. I believe in school vouchers so that children of differing faiths can be instructed in their individual beliefs without offending the sensibilities of others. I believe in smaller government, cleaner television and truthful news reporting. I make no apologies for my Christianity. I believe that Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life, the only way, the only truth and the only life. I believe in racial equality and not the self serving, band aid surgery type of rhetorical clap trap expounded by some of the minority leaders. I believe in the right to bear arms. I refuse to be afraid in my own house and I believe that I have the right to protect my family by whatever means necessary. I believe in giving a day’s work for a day’s pay . I believe that every man who fathers a child should be responsible for that child’s welfare until it reaches the age of majority. I believe that every able bodied man would work for a living instead of living off the taxpayers. Conversely, I believe that every truly disabled person should be able to receive all the help they need. I believe that every person should be responsible for their own actions and held accountable for them. I believe in the punishment of criminals up to and including the death penalty. I believe in the American dream. I believe that if you’re willing to try hard enough that you can make something out of yourself. "
