Lyrics
Way down in Louisiana, down in New Orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B Goode
He never, ever learned to read or write so well
He could play the guitar just like he's ringin' a bell
CHORUS
Go, go!
Go Johnny, go go
Go Johnny, go go go
Go Johnny, go go
Go Johnny, go go go
Johnny B Goode
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Go sit beneath the trees by the railroad track
The engineers would see him sittin' in the shade
Strummin' to the rhythm that the driver made
People passing by, you know they'd stop and say
Oh my, that little country boy sure can play
CHORUS
Well, his momma told him one day you would be a man
And you will be the leader of a big old band
People going to come from miles around
To listen to you playin' 'til the sun goes down
And one day maybe your name gonna be in lights
Sayin' Johnny B Goode Tonight
OUT - CHORUS
END
