Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans

Way back in the woods among the evergreens

There in an old cabin made of earth and wood

There lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode.

He never learned to read or write so well

But he could play a guitar like ringin' a bell.

Go go go Johnny go go; go Johnny go go;

Go Johnny go go; Go Johnny go go; Go Johnny B. Goode.

He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack

Go sit up in the trees by the railroad track.

The engineers seen him sittin' in the shade

Strummin' to the rhythm that the drivers made.

People passin' by would stop and say

"My my but that little country boy can play!"

Go go go Johnny go go; go Johnny go go;

Go Johnny go go; Go Johnny go go; Go Johnny B. Goode.

His mamma told him "Someday you will be a man."

You will be the leader of a big old band

Many people comin' from miles around

To hear you play your music when the sun goes down.

Maybe someday your name will be in lights.
