Let It Rock Lyrics - Singles - Hello

(chuck berry) 

Well in the heat of day down in mobile, alabama 

I'm workin' on the railroad with a steel drivin hammer 

I gotta get some money buy some brand new shoes 

Gotta find somebody take away my blues 

Well she don't love me when I'm singin' in the sun 

Payday's comin' when the work is all done 

Well now late here in the evening when the sun is sinkin low 

All day I've been waitin' for that whistle to blow 

Sitting in a teepee built right on here on the tracks 

Rolling them bones until the foreman comes back 

Pick up your belongings boys and scattere about 

We've got an off shedule train comin two miles out

20 Classic Christmas Lyrics to Celebrate The Holiday Season 

Everybody's scrambling and a running around 

Picking up their money tearing the teepee down 

Foreman wants to panic, bout to go insane 

Trying to get the workers out the way of the train 

Engineer blows the whistle loud and long 

Can't stop the train gotta let it roll on 

"bye bye johnny" 

Well now she drew out all of the money of southern trust 

And put her little johnny on a greybound bus 

Leavin' louisiana for the golden west 

Drowned in the tears from her happiness 

Her own little son named johnny b goode 

Gonna make some motion pictures out in hollywood 

I said bye, bye, bye, bye 

I said bye, bye, bye, bye 

Bye bye johnny, goodbye johnny b goode

9 Misheard Christmas Carol Lyrics 

Well she remembers taking money after gathering crops 

And buying johnny's guitar at the brokers shop 

As long as he would play it by the railroad site 

He wouldn't get in trouble she was satisfied 

Well she never knew there would come a day like this 

When she'd have to give johnny a good bye kiss 

I said bye, bye, bye, bye 

I said bye, bye, bye, bye 

Bye bye johnny, goodbye johnny b goode 

Well now she finally got the letter she'd been dreaming of 

When johnny wrote and told her he had done fell in love 

As soon as he was married he'd bring her back 

And build a mansion for her by the railroad trck 

And every time you heard that locomotive roar 

She'd be standing there waiting at the kitchen door 

I said bye, bye, bye, bye 

I said bye, bye, bye, bye 

Bye bye johnny, goodbye johnny b goode
