Hey, all you country music fans out there!
I know you know this tune by Charlie Daniels. Everybody sing along!

The Devil Went Down to Florida
The Devil went down to Florida. He was lookin' for a state to steal.
He knew he'd find judges standin' in line, all itchin' to make a deal.
When he came upon this swamp judge bendin' the law with all he's got,
the Devil jumped up on a pile of briefs and said, "Boy, let me tell you what".

"I'll give you this whole state to run if you just bow to me.
and make you king of this here land that folks think is still free.
Just give me a free hand here to do the things I do,
And if you're more evil than this old dragon, my job belongs to you!"

The judge said, "My name's Georgie, I can't wait to begin.
I'll take your bet, but you're gonna regret it, 'cause I'm the worst that's ever been."

        Georgie put on your black robe and bang your gavel hard!
        You've got to turn your state into the Devil's own backyard.
        And if you win you're gonna get a ringside seat in Hell,
        But if you lose you get to go to Hell!

The Devil knocked a girl down flat and no one called police,
then raked in lots of money from the doctors he could fleece,
then gave it to a slimy weasel who had a law degree,
then looked old George straight in the eye and said, "Let's see you top me!"

        Constitutional crisis! Run, Jeb, run!
        Devil's in the court in the coast of sun.
        Lawyers in the backroom gouging out dough.
        Congress can you still fight? No no no.

When Georgie banged his gavel down an earthquake shook the ground,
and cops in combat boots arrested kids from out of town.
"Don't nobody feed that girl!", he thundered as from on high,
" 'cause I'm the law 'round this here place, and the law is she must die!"

The Devil lost his job that day, he knew he had been beat
And laid his horns and pitchfork on the ground at Georgie's feet.
George said, "You're a useless eater now, you'll get no doctor's care,
But I'll give you your own room in that hospice over there.
You should have known right from the start that I was gonna win.
I done told you once you son of a gun, I'm the worst that's ever been!"

        Constitutional crisis! Run, Jeb, run!
        Devil's in the court in the coast of sun.
        Lawyers in the backroom gouging out dough.
        Congress can you still fight? No no no.

I knew you and I think alot alike. :)

Great Job~!!!

Wow.

WAMPUS, that is amazing. You should make it into a thread all its own.
