Way down to 
Lousiana down 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 never ever learned to read or write so well 
But he could play a guitar just like he's ringin' a bell 
Go go, go 
Johnny go go, go 
Johnny go go go, 
Go Johnny go go, go 
Johnny go go go, 
Johnny B Goode 
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack 
He sit beneath the tree by the railroad track 
The engineer would see him sittin' in the shade 
Strummin' to the rhythm that the driver made 
The people passin' by they would stop and say 
Oh my that little country boy sure can play 
Go go go Johnny go go... [ guitar - piano ] 
Go go go Johnny go go... 
Well his mother told him one day you will be a man 
And you will be the leader of a big old band 
People goin' and comen from miles around 
To listen to your play til' the sun goes down 
One day maybe your name gonna be in lights sayin' 
Johnny B Goode tonight 
Go go go Johnny go go...
