Elton John - Johnny B. Goode lyrics
[Elton John - Johnny B. Goode lyrics]
Way back up in 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 never learned to read or write so well
But he could play a guitar
Just like ringing a bell
Go, go, go Johnny, go, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go, go go Johnny, go, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go, go go, go, Johnny B goode
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Sat beneath the tree by the railroad track
An engineer could see him
Sitting in the shade
Strumming with the rhythm that
The drivers made the people passing by
They would stop and say
Oh my, how that little country boy could play
Go, go, go Johnny, go, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go, go go Johnny, go, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go, go go, go, Johnny B goode
His mother told him
Someday you will be a man
You will be the leader of a big old band
Many people coming from miles around
To hear you play your music
When the sun goes down
And maybe someday your name will be in lights
Saying Johnny B goode tonight
Go, go, go Johnny, go, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go, go go Johnny, go, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go, go go, go, Johnny B goode
