Artist/Band: John Denver
Lyrics for Song: Johnny B. Goode
Lyrics for Album: John Denver [1979]



Way down in Lou'siana close to New Orleans,

Way back in the woods among the evergreens

there stood a log cabin made or earth and wood.

Where lived a country boy name of Johnny B. Goode.

He never ever learned to read or write so well,

but he could play a guitar just like a ringin' bell.



Go go

go Johnny go

go

go Johnny go

Go

go Johnny go

Go

go Johnny go

Go

Johnny B. Goode.



He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack,

go sit beneath a tree by the railroad track.

The engineers would see him sittin' in the shade

strummin' to the rhythm that the drivers made.

people passing by they would stop and say

oh my but that little country boy can play.



Go go

go Johnny go

go Johnny go go go

Go Johnny go go go

Go Johnny go go go

Johnny B. Goode.



Well, his momma told him, "Some day you will be a man.

You will be the leader of a big old band,

many people comin' from miles around

just to hear you play your music till the sun goes down.

Maybe someday your name 'll be in lights,

sayin', 'Johnny B. Goode tonight!!'"



Go go go go

go Johnny go

go

go Johnny go go go

go Johnny go go

go Johnny go go go

Johnny B. Goode.



Go go

go Johnny go go go

go Johnny go go go

go Johnny go go go

go Johnny go go go

Johnny B. Goode.
