Are you with me? Are you with me, St. Louis? Then let's blow the roof off this mother tonight! Alright!
Deep down in Louisiana, back in New Orleans Way back among the woods among the evergreens Stood a log cabin made of earth and wood Lived a little boy named Johnnie B. Goode Who never ever learned to read or write so well He could rock 'n' roll like a bat out of hell Go! We can't hear you! Go Johnnie Go Go Johnnie B. Goode
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack He sit down by the tree by the railroad track The engineer he could see him Sittin' in the shade Strummin' with the rhythm That the drivers made People passin' by they would stop and say My but that St. Louis boy can play Go! Johnnie B. Goode
Well, his mother told him someday you'll be a man You'll be the leader of a really cool band Many people comin' from miles around To hear you get it on when the sun goes down Maybe someday you're name will be in lights Sayin' Johnnie be good tonight Everybody Come on, St. Louis Oh, yeah Johnnie B. Goode
I know you don't want me to leave Go, Go Johnnie Go Go, Go Johnnie Go Go, Go Johnnie Go go go go go Go Johnnie Go Go Johnnie B. Goode
