Johnny+B.+Goode

Johnny B. Goode __Verse 1:__ Deep down in Lou'siana, close to New Orleans, 'way back up in the woods among the evergreens; there stood an old cabin made of earth and wood, where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode. Who'd never ever learned to read or write so well, but he could play a guitar just like a ringing' a bell.

__Chorus:__ Go! Go! Go, Johnny, Go! Go! Go, Johnny, Go! Go! Go, Johnny, Go! Go! Go, Johnny, Go! Go! Johnny B. Goode

__Verse 2:__ He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack, Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track; Ol' engineer would see him sitting' in the shade, Strummin' with the rhythm that the drivers made. The people passin' by, they would stop and say Oh my, but that little country boy could play. Chorus

Verse 3: His mother told him, "Someday you will be a man, And you will be the leader of a big old band; Many people comin' from miles around, To hear you play your music 'til the sun goes down. Maybe someday your name will be in lights, A-sayin' Johnny B. Goode tonight." Chorus media type="youtube" key="lNeEb7I3bwI" height="315" width="420"
