Johnny B. Goode (Live) Lyrics

 

Deep down in louisiana close to new orleans

 

Way back up in the woods among the evergreens

 

There in an old cabin made of earth and wood

 

There lived a country boy named johnny b goode

 

He never learned to read or write so well

 

But he could play a guitar like ringin' a bell

Go go go johnny go go

 

Go johnny 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 up in the trees by the railroad track

 

The engineer has seen him sittin' in the shade

 

Strummin' to the rhythm that the drivers made

 

People passin' by would stop and say

Oh my but that little country boy can play

Go go go johnny go go

 

Go johnny go go

 

Go johnny go go

 

Go johnny go go

 

Go johnny b goode

 

His mama told him someday you will be a man

 

You will be the leader of a big old band

 

Many people comin' from miles around

 

To hear you play your music when the sun goes down

 

Maybe someday your name will be in lights

Saying 'johnny b goode tonight'

 

Whoa go go johnny go go

 

Go johnny go go

 

Go johnny go go

 

Go johnny go go

 

Go johnny b goode

 

Go go johnny go go

 

Go johnny go go

 

Go johnny go go

 

Go johnny go go

 

 

Go johnny b goode
