Play the Funky Fiddle

about

The Fiddle and the Devil have a long history together. This track explores the story a bit farther, and brings the funkiness out of the fiddle strings.

lyrics

Is it a violin or fiddle, or a bass real little.
Something made from a tree
Sounds so fine, play the funky fiddle for me.
Get your squirrel skinned hat and your three-legged cat,
And a feeling to be free
Sounds so fine, play the funky fiddle for me.

Well the Devil said son come break bread, just sit and talk with me
I'll make that fiddle sound so fine, it will set your spirit free
So around sundown we all gather round. Brings us to our knees
Sounds so fine, play the funky fiddle for me.

Grab your mammy, grab your pappy, whatever makes you happy
Come along and you will see
Ol Jimmy John Riddle can sure play the fiddle, he's the best that will ever be
Sounds so fine play the funky fiddle for me

The Devil's home is so nice and warm, got the best breakfast in town
As I closed the door, I felt quite sure he said Come on Back Around
You could hear that sound for miles around, far across the sea
Sounds so fine play the funky fiddle for me

Play a fast breakdown in the Key of G, or low down blues in E
Sounds so fine play the funky fiddle for me
Beethoven, Mozart, Chopin, and Descartes, should have gone on a fiddle spree
Sounds so fine, play the funky fiddle for me

Well the Devil's hand is so cold and old, as he picks up the bow
When the rhythm kicks in it must be a sin, how he makes that fiddle go
You could never hear a sound so clear, anywhere in the galaxy
Sounds so fine, play the funky fiddle for me
