Chuck Berry - Johnny B Goode
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 AND WRITE SO WELL
BUT HE COULD PLAY A GUITAR JUST LIKE RINGING A BELL
CHORUS
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
GO SIT BENEATH A TREE BY THE RAILROAD TRACK
OLD ENGINEER WOULD SEE HIM SITTIN IN THE SHADE
STRUMMIN WITH THE RHYTHM THAT THE DRIVERS MADE
WELL PEOPLE PASSING BY THEY WOULD STOP AND SAY
OH MAN BUT THAT LITTLE COUNTRY BOY CAN PLAY
CHORUS
GUITAR
HIS MOTHER TOLD HIM SOMEDAY YOU WILL BE A MAN
AND 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 GO DOWN
MAYBE SOMEDAY YOUR NAME WILL BE IN LIGHTS,
SAYING JOHNNY B GOODE TONIGHT
CHORUS
