Lyrics

Deep down in Louisiana close to 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
 Who never ever learned to read or write so well
 But he could play a guitar just like a ringin' a bell
 Go Go
 Go Johnny Go Go
 Go Johnny Go Go
 Go Johnny Go Go
 Go Johnny Go Go
 Johnny B. Goode
 He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
 Oh sit beneath a tree by the railroad track
 Oh the engineers would see him sittin' in the shade
 Strummin' with the rhythm that the drivers made
 Oh 'n' people passin' by they would stop and say
 'Oh my but that little country boy could play'
 His mother told him 'some day you will be a man
 And you will be the leader of a big ol' band
 Many people comin' from miles around
 To hear you play your music when the sun go down
 Maybe some day your name will be in lights sayin'
 'Johnny B. Goode' tonight
