Johnny B Goode lyrics by Big Fat Snake
Deep down in Louisianaclose to New Orleans,
way back in the woods
among the evergreens,
there stand a country cabin
made of clay and wood,
where lives a country boy
named Johnny B goode,
He never ever learned
to read or write a book,
but he could play his guitar
just like ringing a bell
Go go, go Johnny go go
Go Johnny go go go
Go Johnny go go
Go Johnny go go
Aah Johnny B Goode
He used to carry his guitar
in a gunny sack,
sit beneath the trees
by the railroad track
Sitting and a playing
in the shade, and
drumming to the rhythm
that the drivers made
The people passing by
used to stop and say, hey
that country boy can play
Go go, go Johnny go go
Go Johnny go go
Go Johnny go go
Go Johnny go go
Aah, Johnny B Goode
His mama told him
Someday you will be a man
And you will be the leader
of a big old band
and many people coming
from miles around,
to hear you play your music
till the sun goes down
Maybe some day
your name will be in the light,
saying:
Johnny B Goode tonight
Go go, go Johnny go go
Go Johnny go go
Go Johnny go go
Go Johnny go go
Aaah, Johnny B Goode
Go go, go Johnny go go
Go Johnny go go go
Go Johnny go go
Go Johnny go go go
Aaah, Johnny B Goode
