Name: The Devil Went Down to Kevin
Duration: P00H03M43S
Description: For the ongoing entertainment of Ned, I asked him to challenge me. I told him to name a song, any song, and I would record a cover version for his amusement. After much deliberation, he decided that I should record a version of "The Devil Went Down to Georgia". I decided that it would not be nearly entertaining enough to record a straight up cover of it. So I did it in this manner.

lyrics

The devil went
Down to Georgia
to steal a soul
He saw some chump
playing geetar
jumped up on stump

Who is this guy?
DEVIL
Who was the kid?
KEVIN

Let's make a bet
Let's both play shows
If my song's best
I get your soul
If yours, you get
geetar of gold

Who is this guy?
DEVIL
Who was the kid?
KEVIN

Was pretty good
DEVIL had fun
KEVIN got up
and he said son
I'll show you how
This stuff is done

Who is this guy?
DEVIL
Who was the kid?
KEVIN

The DEVIL bowed his head
he knew that he had been beat
He laid that geetar
down at KEVIN's feet
DEVIL come back you son of a bitch if you wanna try again
But I told you once
I'm the best that's ever been.
