Johnny Be Good Lyrics - Chuck Berry

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 ringing 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 

Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track 

Oh, the engineer would see him sitting in the shade 

Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made 

The people passing by, they would stop and say 

Oh my, but that little country boy could play 

Go go 

Go Johnny go! 

Go 

Go Johnny go! 

Go 

Go Johnny go! 

Go 

Go Johnny go! 

Go 

Johnny B. Goode!

His mother told him "Someday you will be a man, 

And you will be the leader of a big ol' band 

Many people coming from miles around 

To hear you play your music when the sun go down 

Maybe someday your name'll be in lights 

Saying Johnny B. Goode tonight" 

Go go 

Go Johnny go 

Go go go Johnny go 

Go go go Johnny go 

Go go go Johnny go 

Go 

Johnny B. Goode
