The Lyrics
Sometimes all you have to do is yank and diddle just a few of the original song's words, and up springs a hard-to-beat parody...
(instrumental intro)
(Narrated:)
The devil went down to Georgia
He was lookin' for a pole to steal
He was in a bind cause he was way behind
And he was willin' to make a deal
When he came across this young man
Sawin' on his diddle and yankin' it hard
And the devil jumped up on a hickory stump
And said, "Boy, you should lube with lard
I guess you didn't know it
But I'm a diddle yanker too
And if you'd care to take a dare
I'll make a bet with you
Now you yanked pretty good diddle, boy
But give the devil his due
I bet a Trojan of gold against your pole
'Cause I think I'm better than you"
The boy said "My name's Johnny
And it might be a sin
But I'll take your bet, you're gonna regret,
'Cause I'm the best that's ever been!"
(Sung:)
Johnny lubricate your pole
And yank your diddle hard
'Cause hell's broke loose in Georgia
And the devil deals the cards
And if you win, you get this shiny Trojan made of gold
But if you lose, the devil gets your pole!
(fiddle break)
(Narrated:)
The devil opened up his pants
And he said "I'll start this show"
And fire flew from his evil rod
As he Vaselined his pole
And he pulled his claws across his thing
And he made an evil hiss
A sexy succubus joined in,
Gave the devil a firey kiss...
(demonic diddle break)
(Narrated:)
When the devil finished, Johnny said,
"Well you're pretty good, old son.
But sit down on your succubus
And let me show you how it's done!"
(Sung:)
Fire up your fountain, Johnny son!
Devil is afraid of your rising gun!
Chicken in your right hand gettin' a choke!
Wild man are you son, that's no joke!
(angelic diddle break)
(Narrated:)
The devil bowed his head
Because he knew that he'd been beat
And he laid that golden Trojan down
And bowed to Johnny's meat
Johnny said "Devil, go on back to hell,
Now you've paid up and been thanked.
I done told you once, you son of a bitch,
I'm the best that's ever wanked!"
(Sung:)
Fire up your fountain, Johnny son!
Devil is afraid of your rising gun!
Chicken in your right hand gettin' a choke!
Wild man are you son, that's no joke!

So naughty...so nice! 555...
I think when the opening comments sound risque that I'm in for it. How do you get by with this?
Arwen: Thanks, My Nicely Naughty Pointy-Eared Princess!
Adagio: Beats me!
Adagio: Beats me!
Blushinly giving you 5's.
"Chicken in your right hand gettin' a choke!" LMFAO!
I hope you do "The Devil Went Down On Georgia" next! 555 This is superb
Timely - last night's 11:00pm Seinfeld rerun was "Master of My Domain".
Diddle me this, diddle me that. J is for Johnny D is for diddle 5's man
Gorgeous, in my mind. Beautiful job.
That's hilarious! Well done.
what a hoot...you rock, johnny
Hey diddle diddle, Johnny's fit as a fiddle (when it comes to parodying, of course) :-D
It is rare, even among this group, that one comes across the phrase "ANGELIC DIDDLE BREAK." That ALONE in this parody should earn you eternal banishment to the hottest circle of heck!!! As it is, it will instead earn you yet another three fives (which is ironic, considering that "three-five" is a military slang term for the, um, activity you have described in this song). I agree with ashkicksass on the best line. I just about fell over! Way to whip out another good one!! :D
Execllent Johnny! I suppose the devil made you do it?
Are you sure this wasn't written by Jackov Smearnoff? -- MM
Schwing! Three fives way up! 555 That was AWESOME!
Adagio: Blushingly saying thanks!
Ashkicksass: Obviously a rooster, by any other name.
Red Neck Mother: Thanks, RNM - whaddaya say I leave that one to you? I know you can do it!
Robert J. Pagliaro: A fortuitous confluence of Cosmo forces.
Lionel Mertens: And the cow jumped over the moon! Thank you!
John Barry: Thanks JB.
Leo Jay: I guess it worked, then! Thanks LJ!
alvin rhodes: Takes one to know one, alvin, so do you - thanks.
Meriadoc: You got that right, hairy-footed one. I thank you from the bottom of my rosin box.
Stray Pooch: Well, if we extend Anselm's ontological proof of the existence of a Supreme Being to include song parodies, Boggle, and general phrase-turning, then it would logically follow that the most perfectly pure "diddle break" would be the "angelic". Glad you like how it was whipped out!
Peregrin: Good Heavens, no! 0:-)
Michael McVey: Da! Er, nyet! Ah, spasibo!
Cookie-man: Thanks for three 5's way up on angel schwings, er, I mean wings!

This is a riot!! 555 ya wanker!
Thanks, zfunky1!
Whew ! I'm gonna rest up a spell 'afore I get back to you with my score here.
'kay, I'm good now! I give it three 5"s!
Hmm.. another one worthy of a big hand, JD - so when's "The Devil went down on Georgia" coming out?
The Thought Police: Thanks!
Philbo: Thank you, too, PA - see my reply to RNM above... ;-)

.LOL!!!!!!!
Johnny, you mean you are capable of blushing? lol
Johnny D, did you know about that "three-five" military term thing? That's wild... (Sorry -- I had to ask, or you'd never tell...)
mac: Heh heh heh!!
Adagio: Even better after a shot o' scotch (hic) ;-D No, I haven't had any alcohol THIS early in the day, though! :-)
Leo Jay: I did not know about that "three-five" military idiom, it's news to me....how did they ever come up with "three-five" as a designation for self-love?

THREE-FIVE AS MILITARY SLANG: Little Johnny (no relation, I'm sure - heh heh) is having trouble getting pottie trained. Dad, a First Sergeant says "I'll train him military style - by the numbers!" So he takes Johnny into the bathroom and explains "Son, piddling is an eight-count exercise: On the count of "one" you pull down your zipper. On "two" you pull it out. On "three" you roll back the foreskin. On "four" you take your whiz. On "five" you shake it and roll the foreskin back up. On "six" you place it back in your pants. On "seven" you pull up your zipper. On "eight" you wash your hands. Got it?" "Yes, Daddy," says Little Johnny excitedly. They practice a few times to be sure Johnny has it and then Little Johnny goes out to play. An hour later he comes in all excited to do his eight-count exercise. He comes back down and says "Mommy, I did it!" A half hour later he goes through the exercise again. Fifteen minutes later he is back upstairs and Mom is starting to wonder. She says to Dad "Johnny sure is spending a lot of time in the bathroom!" Dad decides to investigate. Sure enough, fifteen minutes later Johnny is in again. Dad peeks inside the bathroom to see what Little Johnny is up to. As he watches, Johnny counts out the exercise: "One. Two. Three Five, Three Five, Three Five, Three Five, . . . Now aren't you sorry you asked?
That's quite a story, Stray Pooch, I've got to hand it to - ah, never mind, thanks.
Where do you get off posting this? Oh, that's right, experience, "Mr. Fitzgerald."
Thank you, Michael. It all started with a LONGshoreman on a wharf during a storm on Lake Superior...The "Trojan" had come from the port of Hong Kong...
Who will saa-a-ave your pole,when the devil makes a claim for it?
Thanks Jewel !
Polemic, in a way.. Straight up 5s!
Thanks, RW!
"Best that's ever wanked" pretty much says it all.
Heh heh, thanks CP!
How did I miss this? Purely (a-hem, maybe not so pure) comic genius-like, although "angelic diddle break" is going to reserve you two spots. One would be the 7th layer of hell. The other would be my list of people not to talk to ever again.
Thank you, EmiLoca...and your comment has reserved for YOU a spot in the Emi-Loka. Got Tibetan Buddhism? Well ya do now, Rinpoche.
Weirdo.
EmiLoca, congratulations --- you're GETTIN' TA KNOW ME --- and it takes one to know one, Fellow Weirdo.
BTW, Emi, for a description of the Tibetan Buddhist term " Loka ", I recommend the following discussion of " The Tibetan Book Of The Dead " (scroll down to the section titled "The second bardo"):

I really have no interest in Tibetan Buddhism, not being a resident of Tibet, being Buddhist, or being weird.
