[00:18.51] Deep down in Louisiana, close to New Orleans,
[00:21.48] way back up in the woods, among the evergreens.
[00:24.57] There stand a country cabin, made of tar and wood,
[00:27.92] where lives a country boy named Johnny B. Goode.
[00:30.87] He never learned to read or write a book so well.
[00:34.09] He could play his guitar just
[00:35.63] like a-ringing the bell.
[00:37.20] Go, go, go, Johnny, go, go, go
[00:42.08] Go, Johnny, go, go, go
[00:44.40] Go, Johnny, go, go, go
[00:47.33] Go, Johnny, go, go, go
[00:50.63] aah - Johnny B. Goode
[00:53.96]
[00:56.02] He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack.
[00:59.25] Sit beneath the trees by the railroad track.
[01:02.60] Oh, sitting and a-playing in the shade,
[01:05.79] strumming to the rhythm that the drivers made
[01:08.83] People passing by used to stop and say:
[01:12.12] "My, but how that country boy could play"
[01:15.23] Go, go, go, Johnny, go, go, go
[01:19.50] Go, Johnny, go, go, go
[01:22.29] Go, Johnny, go, go, go
[01:25.54] Go, Johnny, go, go, go
[01:28.62] aah - Johnny B. Goode
[01:31.64]
[02:10.08] Well, his mama told him,
[02:12.36] "Someday, you will be a man,
[02:14.47] and you will be the leader of a big old band.
[02:17.58] Many people coming from miles around
[02:20.78] to hear you play your music till the sun goes down.
[02:23.89] Maybe someday, your name will be in lights
[02:27.19] saying: 'Johnny B. Goode tonight' "
[02:29.65]
[02:31.07] Go, go, go, Johnny, go, go, go
[02:34.33] Go, Johnny, go, go, go
[02:37.31] Go, Johnny, go, go, go
[02:40.50] Go, Johnny, go, go, go
[02:43.63]
[02:44.85] aah - Johnny B. Goode
[02:47.05]
