Dancing With the Fiddler

The devil dances on the fiddlers bow What you reap you'll surely sow He's cagey and he's clever Before you know it he'll have you tethered Dancing with the fiddler, like a bird without wings While his violin plays its eerie strings Playing his lies to a haunting tune Heard in the night of a darkening moon Out on the river you can hear them say If you dance with the fiddler you'll surely pay Be careful when he plays his fiddler talk As the legend goes... The bow and the fiddle is the devil's box
