Charlie Daniels The Devil Went Down To New York City lyrics

THE DEVIL WENT DOWN TO NEW YORK CITY
Sung to the tune of, `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 and 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`s Johnny and this is where I come in.
I`m part of this bet your gonna regret.
`Cause we`re the best that`s ever been`.
Airforce 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 Devil`s got your soul.`

The Navy jumped on our ships and said: `We`ll start this show`.
Fire flew from their 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 just 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-Bitch, we`re the best we`ve ever been!`
