Lyrics
0:28Deep down in Jamaica close to Mandeville
0:35Back up in the woods on top of a hill
0:41There stood an old hut made of earth and wood
0:48Where lived a country boy named Johnny B Goode
0:55He never learned to read or write so well
1:01But he could play his guitar like ringing a bell yell
1:07Said go go Johnny
1:10Johnny be good tonight yeah
1:14Said go go Johnny
1:17Johnny B Goode
1:21He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
1:28Sit beneath a tree in the railroad track
1:34Old engineer in the train sitting in the shade
1:41Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made
1:47People passing by would stop and say
1:54Oh my oh my what the boy can play
2:00I said go go Johnny
2:03Johnny be good tonight yeah
2:07Said oh oh go Johnny
2:10Johnny B Goode
2:40Mama said Son you gotta be a man
2:47You got to be the leader of a reggae band
2:54People coming in from miles around
3:00To hear you play until the sun goes down
3:07Boy someday your name will be in the lights
3:13Saying Johnny Johnny B Goode Tonite
3:19I said go go Johnny
3:22Johnny be good tonight yeah
3:26Said oh go Johnny
3:28Johnny you better be good
3:33Said go go Johnny
3:36Johnny be good tonight
3:39Please go Johnny
3:42Johnny B Goode
3:45I said go go go go
3:49Johnny be good tonight
3:52I could hear her ring
3:53Go Johnny
3:55That be good
Deep down in Jamaica close to Mandeville Back up in the woods on top of a hill There stood an old hut made of earth and wood Where lived a country boy named Johnny B Goode He never learned to read or write so well But he could play his guitar like ringing a bell yell Said go go Johnny Johnny be good tonight yeah Said go go Johnny Johnny B Goode He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack Sit beneath a tree in the railroad track Old engineer in the train sitting in the shade Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made People passing by would stop and say Oh my oh my what the boy can play I said go go Johnny Johnny be good tonight yeah Said oh oh go Johnny Johnny B Goode Mama said Son you gotta be a man You got to be the leader of a reggae band People coming in from miles around To hear you play until the sun goes down Boy someday your name will be in the lights Saying Johnny Johnny B Goode Tonite I said go go Johnny Johnny be good tonight yeah Said oh go Johnny Johnny you better be good Said go go Johnny Johnny be good tonight Please go Johnny Johnny B Goode I said go go go go Johnny be good tonight I could hear her ring Go Johnny That be good
