    The hero of the song bets his soul against a golden fiddle that he can beat the devil in a fiddling contest because of his pride. People wouldn’t agree that this is a good thing. For example, most people wouldn’t teach their children this story as if Johnny was a hero, but that’s how he’s portrayed in the song.

    This is the best I can explain it. If you keep asking the same questions past this point, I’m going to assume you’re just trolling me.

      Goodness gracious. I literally just didn’t understand your point. 🙄
