Lyrics

Deep down in Louisiana, close to 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. Good Who never ever learned to read or write so well But he could play the guitar just like ringing a bell Go, go Go, Johnny, go, go Go, Johnny, go, go Go, Johnny, go, go Go, Johnny, go, go Johnny B. Good He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack Go sit beneath the trees by the railroad track Oh, the engineers used to see him sitting in the shade Strummin' with the rhythm that the drivers made The people passing by, they would stop and say "Oh my, what that little country boy could play" Go, go Go, Johnny, go, go Go, Johnny, go, go Go, Johnny, go, go Go, Johnny, go, go Johnny B. Good His mother told him, "Someday you will be a man And 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 Maybe someday your name would be in lights Saying, Johnny B. Good tonight" Go, go, go, Johnny, go Go, go, go, Johnny, go Oh, go, go, Johnny, go Go, go, go, Johnny, go Go Johnny B. Good
