Charlie Daniels' Recorded The Devil Went Down To Georgia Today Back in 1978 - Relive It With Charlie And Zac Brown

Today is a very special day in the history of both country music and music in general. On this day back in 1978, the Charlie Daniels Band recorded The Devil Went Down To Georgia at Nashville's Woodland Sound Studios. This remains one of the BEST country/country rock songs I've ever heard. Here are two fantastic versions of the song. The first is from Charlie himself performing the song live with his band back in the day, and the second is from the Zac Brown Band from this year's CMA Awards. Enjoy!

Charlie Daniels Band - In America (Live) - Veteran's Day Video Marathon

Video number 16 in our Veteran's Day Video Marathon is a live performance of the Charlie Daniels Band's In America.

Well the eagle's been flying slow and the flag's been flying low
And a lot of people are saying that America's fixing to fall
But speaking just for me and some people from Tennessee
We got a thing or two to tell you all
This lady may have stumbled but she ain't never fell
And if the Russians don't believe that they can all go straight to hell
We're gonna put her feet back on the path of righteousness
And then God bless America again

And you never did think that it ever would happen again
In America, did you?
You never did think that we'd ever get together again
Well we damn sure fooled you
We're walking real proud and we're talking real loud again in America
You never did think that it ever would happen again

From the sound up in Long Island out to San Francisco Bay
And ev'ry thing that's in between them is our home
And we may have done a little bit of fighting amongst ourselves
But you outside people best leave us alone
Cause we'll all stick together and you can take that to the bank
That's the cowboys and the hippies and the rebels and the yanks
You just go and lay your head on a Pittsburgh Steeler fan
And I think you're gonna finally understand

And you never did think that it ever would happen again
In America, did you?
You never did think that we'd ever get together again
Well we damn sure fooled you
We're walking real proud and we're talking real loud again in America
You never did think that it ever would happen again

Happy Veteran's Day!

Celebrate Halloween With Charlie Daniels' The Legend of Wooley Swamp

To celebrate Halloween, I can't think of a more appropriate country song than the Charlie Daniels Band's The Legend of Wooley Swamp. Check out these lyrics and tell me this song isn't perfect. Happy Halloween everyone!

Well, if you ever go back into Wooley Swamp,
Well, you better not go at night.
There's things out there in the middle of them woods
That make a strong man die from fright.
Things that crawl and things that fly
And things that creep around on the ground.
And they say the ghost of Lucius Clay gets up and he walks around.

[Chorus]
But I couldn't believe it.
I just had to find out for myself.
And I couldn't conceive it
'Cause I never would have listened to nobody else.
And I couldn't believe it.
I just had to find out for myself
There's somethings in this world you just
can't explain.

Spoken:
The old man lived in the Wooley Swamp way back in Booger Woods.
He never did do a lot of harm in the world,
But he never did do no good
People didn't think too much of him
They all thought he acted funny
The old man didn't care about people anyway
All he cared about was his money.
He'd stuff it all down in mason jars
And he'd bury it all around
And on certain nights
If the moon was right
H e'd dig it up out of the ground.
He'd pour it all out on the floor of his shack
And run his fingers through it.
Yeah, Lucius Clay was a greedy old man
And that's all that there was to it.

Cable boys was white trash
They lived over on Carver's Creek.
They were mean as a snake
And sneaky as a cat
And belligerent when they'd speak.
One night the oldest brother said,
"Y'all meet me at the Wooley Swamp later
We'll take old Lucius's money
and we'll feed him to the alligators."

They found the old man out in the back
With a shovel in his hand,
Thirteen rusty mason jars
was just dug up out of the sand.
And they all went crazy
And they beat the old man,
And they picked him up off of the ground.
Threw him in the swamp
And stood there and laughed
As the black water sucked him down.

Then they turned around
And went back to the shack
And picked up the money and ran.
They hadn't gone nowhere
When they realized
They were running in quicksand.
And they struggled and they screamed
But they couldn't get away
And just before they went under
They could hear that old man laughing
In a voice as loud as thunder.

And that's been fifty years ago
And you can go by there yet.
There's a spot in the yard
In the back of that shack
Where the ground is always wet.
And on summer nights
If the moon is right
Down by the that dark footpath,
You can hear three young men screaming.
You can hear one old man laugh.

P.S. Is there another country song you associate with Halloween? If so, leave it in the comments. Thanks!

Charlie Daniels and Travis Tritt - Southern Boy

In 2003, Charlie Daniels released his album Redneck Fiddlin' Man. One of the songs on the album was Southern Boy, which he recorded with Travis Tritt. It peaked at #51 on the Billboard Hot Country charts, and the video was played heavily on both CMT and GAC. It's a classic Charlie Daniels tune with a lot of enthusiasm and a lot of southern pride. Enjoy!
