Baron Davis went down to Utah
by Watcher
adaptation of the tune "The Devil Went Down to Georgia"
by The Charlie Daniels Band
Baron Davis went down to Utah
He was lookin' for a game to steal
He was in a bind 'cause they were way behind
and he was willin' to make a deal
When he came across this young man
Dribbling a ball and passing it hot
Baron jumped up to the scorers table and said
Boy, let me tell you what
I guess you didn't know it
but I'm a basketball player too
And if you'd care to take a dare,
I'll make a bet with you
Now you play a pretty good game, boy,
but give the Baron his due.
I'll bet my jewelry of gold against your soul
'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.
Johnny, rosin up your hands and play your dribble hard
'cause hell's broke loose in Salt Lake and the Baron deals the cards.
And if you win you get his shiny jewelry made of gold
But if you lose, the Baron gets your soul...
The Baron opened up the game
and he said, "I'll start this mess."
And fire flew from his fingertips
as he caught a pass from Wes(ley)
And he dribbled the ball behind his back
and he made an evil hiss.
then a band of hornets joined in
and it sounded something like this
When the Baron finished, Johnny said,
Well, you're pretty good, old son,
but sit down on that bench by your coach
and let me show you how it's done.
Stock on the ball court. Run, boys, run.
Another assist and he's havin' fun.
Kick it in to Harpring way down low.
Stock turn the ball over? No, child, no!
The Baron bowed his head
because he knew that he'd been beat.
And he laid that golden jewelry
on the ground at Johnny's feet.
Johnny said, "Baron, just come on back
if you ever want to try again.
'Cause I told you once, you son of a gun,
I'm the best that's ever been." |
