Lyrics
Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans

Way back 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 ringing a bell

Go go go Johnny go let ' s go

Go Johnny go let ' s go

Go Johnny go let ' s go

Go Johnny go let ' s go

Johnny B Goode

He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack

Sit up in the trees by the railroad track

The engineers seen him sitting in the shade

Strumming to the rhythm that the drivers made

People passing by would stop and say wo

My my but that little country boy can play

Go go go Johnny go let ' s go

Go Johnny go let ' s go

Go Johnny go let ' s go

Go Johnny go let ' s 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 coming from miles around

To hear you play your music when the sun goes down

Maybe someday your name will be in lights

Johny be good man

Go go go Johnny go let ' s go

Go Johnny go let's go

Go Johnny go let's go

Go Johnny go let's go

Go go go go go waa go

Go Johnny go let's go

Go go go go go go go

Go Johnny go let's go

Go Johnny go let's go

Johnny B Goode
