Johnny B. Goode
Marty McFly with The Starlighters Lyrics
Way down in Louisiana, down the New Orleans
Way back up on the woods among the evergreens
There stood an log cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B Goode
Who'd never, ever learned to read or write so well
He could play a guitar just like he's ringin' a bell
Chorus:
Go! Go! Go! Johnny! Go! Go!
Go! Johnny! Go! Go! Go!
Go! Johnny! Go! Go! Go! Johnny B. Goode!
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
And sit beneath the trees by the railroad track
The engineers could see him sittin' in the shade
Strummin'to the rhythm that the driver made
The people passing by you know they stop and say
"Oh, my, that little country boy sure could play"
Repeat Chorus:
Go! Go! Go! Johnny! Go! Go!
Go! Johnny! Go! Go! Go!
Go! Johnny! Go! Go!
Go! Johnny! Go! Go! Go! Johnny B. Goode!
Instrumental:
Well his mama told him, "One day you will be a man
And you will be the leader of a big old band
People gonna come from miles around
To listen to you play till the sun goes down
And one day maybe your name gonna be in lights
A-sayin' 'Johnny B Goode tonight'"
Last Chorus:
Go! Go! Go! Go!Johnny! Go! Go!
Go! Johnny! Go! Go! Go!
Go! Johnny! Go! Go!
Go! Johnny! Go! Go! Go! Johnny B Goode
Oh Go! Go! Go! Go! Johnny! Go! Go!
Go! Johnny! Go! Go! Go! Go! Johnny! Go! Go!

Way down in Louisiana
Down in New Orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
There stood a log 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
He could play a guitar just like he's ringing 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,
and sit beneath the trees by the railroad track
The engineer could see him sitting in the shade,
strumming to the rhythm that the driver made
People passing by and always stop and say,
"Oh my! That little country boy sure can play!"
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
Johnny, go
Go, go
Go, Johnny, go
Go, go
Johnny,
Go, go
Johnny B. Goode
Well, his mama told him,
"One day you will be a man,
and you will be the leader of a big old band.
People gonna come from miles around
to listen to you playing til the sun goes down.
And one day maybe your name gonna be in the lights,
saying 'Johnny B. Goode tonight.'"
Go, go, go
Go, Johnny, go
Go, go
Johnny, go
Go, go
Go, Johnny, go
Go, go
Johnny,
Go, go, go
Johnny B. Goode
Oh, no, go
Go, Johnny, go
Go, go
Johnny, go
Go, go
Go, Johnny, go
Go, go
Johnny,
Go, go...

Way down Louisiana now in New Orleans,
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens...
There stood a long cabin made of 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 the guitar just like he's ringing bell.
Go Go
Go Johnny Go
Go Go
Johny be good
He use to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
And sit beneath the trees by the railroad track.
Oh, the engineers used to see him sitting in the shade,
stoping to the rhythm that the drivers made.
People passing by would stop and say
Oh my that little country boy sure can play
Go Go
Go Johnny Go
Go Go
Johny be good
Well, His mama told him one day he will be a man,
And you will be the leader of a big old band.
Many people gonna come from miles around
To listen to him play until the sun goes down
And one day maybe your name would be in lights
Saying Johnny B. Goode tonight.
