Johnny b goode   Chuck Berry


(Chuck Berry)
Johnny B. Goode

deep down in louisianna close to new orleans
way back up in the woods among the evergreens
stood a log cabin built 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 ringing a bell

        go, go johnny go, etc.

he used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
and sit beneath the trees by the railroad track
the engineers would see him sitting in the shade
strumming with the rythym that the drivers made
people passing by, they would stop and say
oh my! but that little country boy can play

his mother told him 'someday you will be a man
and you will be the leader of a big ole band
many people coming from miles around
to hear you play your music when the sun go down
and maybe someday your name will be in lights
saying 'johnny b. goode tonight''
