Deep down in Louisianna
Close to New Orleans
D
There stand a country cabin
Made of clay and wood
A
Where lives a young country boy
Named Johnny B. Goode
E
He never ever learned
To read or write a book so well
A
But he could play his guitar
Just like a-ringing a bell

A
He used to carry his guitar
In a gunny sack
D
Oh sitting and a-playing
In the shade
A
Drumming to the rhythm
That the drivers made
E
People passing by
Used to stop and say
A
My oh my
That country boy can play

Well his mama told him
Someday you will be a man

From miles around

Till the sun goes down

Your name will be in light

Saying Johnny B. Goode tonight!
