She drew out all her money from the Southern Trust | |
And put her little boy aboard a greyhound bus. | |
Leavin' Louisiana for the golden west, | |
Down came her tears from her happiness. | |
Her own little some named Johnny B Goode | |
Was going to make some motion pictures down in Hollywood | |
And sing bye bye, bye bye. | |
Bye bye, bye bye. | |
Bye bye Johnny, goodbye Johnny B Goode. | |
She remembered taking money in from gathering crops | |
And buying Johnny’s guitar from the brokers shop. | |
As long as he was playing by the railroad side. | |
Wouldn't get in trouble, she’d be satisfied. | |
She never thought that there would come a day like this | |
When she would have to give her son a goodbye kiss. | |
And sing bye bye, bye bye. | |
Bye bye, bye bye. | |
Bye bye Johnny, goodbye Johnny B Goode. | |
She finally got the letter she was dreaming of | |
Cos Johnny wrote and told her he had fell in love. | |
As soon as he was married he would bring her back | |
And build a mansion for her by the railroad side. | |
So every time she heard the locomotive roar | |
She be standing,waiting at the kitchen door. | |
And sing bye bye, bye bye. | |
Bye bye, bye bye. | |
Bye bye Johnny, goodbye Johnny B Goode... |
She drew out all her money from the Southern Trust | |
And put her little boy aboard a greyhound bus. | |
Leavin' Louisiana for the golden west, | |
Down came her tears from her happiness. | |
Her own little some named Johnny B Goode | |
Was going to make some motion pictures down in Hollywood | |
And sing bye bye, bye bye. | |
Bye bye, bye bye. | |
Bye bye Johnny, goodbye Johnny B Goode. | |
She remembered taking money in from gathering crops | |
And buying Johnny' s guitar from the brokers shop. | |
As long as he was playing by the railroad side. | |
Wouldn' t get in trouble, she' d be satisfied. | |
She never thought that there would come a day like this | |
When she would have to give her son a goodbye kiss. | |
And sing bye bye, bye bye. | |
Bye bye, bye bye. | |
Bye bye Johnny, goodbye Johnny B Goode. | |
