She drew out all her money out of the Southern Trust
And put her little boy aboard a Greyhound Bus
Leaving Louisiana for the Golden West
Down came the tears from her happiness
Her own little son name 'o Johnny B. Goode
Was gonna make some motion pictures out in Hollywood

Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye bye Johnny
Good bye Johnny B. Goode

She remembered taking money out from gathering crop
And buying Johnny's guitar at a broker shop
As long as he would play it by the railroad side
And wouldn't get in trouble he was satisfied
But never thought that there would come a day like this
When she would have to give her son a goodby kiss

Going
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye bye Johnny
Good bye Johnny B. Goode

She finally got the letter she was dreaming of
Johnny wrote and told her he had fell in love
As soon as he was married he would bring her back
And build a mansion for 'em by the railroad track
So every time they heard the locomotive roar
They'd be a' standin', a' wavin' by the kitchen door

Howling
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye bye Johnny
Good bye Johnny B. Goode

Oh lordy Lord, oh lordy Lord
It hurts me so bad for us to part
But someday, baby, I ain't gonna worry my life anymore

So many nights since you've been gone
I've had to worry my life along
But someday, baby, I ain't gonna worry my life anymore

How many times, how many times since you went away
Have I set and cried and cried both night and day
Someday, baby, I ain't gonna worry my life anymore

You're on my mind, baby, every place I go
How much I love you, nobody knows
But someday, baby, I ain't gonna worry my life anymore

So that's my story, baby, this is all I got to say to you
Bye-bye, baby, I don't care what you do
Someday, baby, I ain't gonna worry my life anymore

Now if you wanna hear some boogie like I'm gonna play
It's just an old piano and a knockout bass
The drummer man's a cat they call Kickin' McCoy
You know, remember that rubber-legged boy?
Mama's cookin' chicken fried and bacon grease
Come on along boys it's just down the road apiece

Well, there's a place you really get your kicks
It's open every night about twelve to six
Now if you wanna hear some boogie you can get your fill
And shove and sting like an old steam drill
Come on along you can lose your lead
Down the road, down the road, down the road apiece

There's a place you really get your kicks
It's open every night about twelve to six
Now if you wanna hear some boogie you can get your fill
And shove and sting like an old steam drill
Come on along you can lose your lead
Down the road, down the road, down the road apiece

. . .


Baby here I stand before you
With my heart in my hand
I put it to you mama
Hoping that you'll understand

Oh, baby
Mama, please don't dog me 'round
Yeah I, I would rather love you, baby
Than anyone else I know in town

This is my confession, Mama
And it's sung by all your song
It proves that I'm in heaven, Mama
When you hold me in your arms

Well, baby
Can I have you for myself
Yeah, if I can't have you, baby
I don't want nobody else

Well, baby
Don't you want a man like me
Well, baby
Don't you want a man like me
Yeah, think about your future, baby
Forget about your used to be

Casey is an old man who wants to be a teen
He goes to all the dances and they call him cha-cha king
He cha-chas when the band is playin' rock and roll
He tries to keep in time but the beat leaves him cold.

Because he's too pooped to pop, too old a soul
Hips gettin' weaker when he tries to do the stroll
And every time his feet get to go in one way
Here comes a new dance and it's goin' to stray.

Chicks told Casey, You better move man,
This is only a one night stand
Casey wasn't in time but he was dancin' awhile
Till a cramp caught his leg and he had to change his style.

Because he's too pooped to pop, too old a soul
Hips gettin' weaker when he tries to do the stroll
And every time his feet get to go in one way
Here comes a new dance and it's goin' to stray.

Because he's too pooped to pop, too old a soul
Hips gettin' weaker when he tries to do the stroll
And every time his feet get to go in one way
Here comes a new dance and it's goin' to stray.

Casey finally learned to do the hoochie koo
This might have been fine back in '22
Now, I'm gonna give you fellows just a little tip
If you wanna keep your girl you'd better get hip
Or, you'll be too pooped to pop, too old a soul
You hips are gettin' weaker when you'll try to do the stroll
And every time your feet gettin' to go in one way
Here comes a new dance you'll be left to stray.

I'm gonna search this town
From door to door
The love I crave
I can't find no more

I got to find my baby
I declare I wouldn't no lie
I ain't had no real good loving
Since that girl said goodbye.

You know I hate to see the sun
Hurry to the west
'Cos I know my whole life's
Will be one solid mess.

I got to find my baby
I declare that ain't no lie
I ain't had no real good loving
Since that girl said goodbye.

Yesl, ever since the day
That she said we were through
I've been nervous
And shook up too.

I got to find my baby
I declare I wouldn't no lie
I ain't had no real good loving
Since that girl said goodbye.

Yesl, I don't care if it's the last thing
I ever do in my life
I'm gonna find that little girl
Make her my wife.

I got to find my baby
I declare I wouldn't no lie
I ain't had no real good loving
Since that girl said goodbye.

I bet you wouldn't think a dance

(Oh yeah Betty Jean)

. . .


Last night, I had a beautiful dream
Last night, in the wee wee hours, oh yes
Had a beautiful dream
Ain't about my childhood sweetheart
How true and real it seemed

I had dreamt we was walkin?br> Hand in hand, home from school
Yeah, I dreamt we was walkin?together
Hand in hand, home from school.
Yeah, if it hadn't be for you darling,
I'd broke my mother's rule.

Yeah, you was only sixteen,
So young and yet so fine
Yeah, you was only sixteen,
So young, yet so fine.
You said when you抎 finish school
You抎 let me take and make you mine.

-Oh Yeah

Yeah, you had those same pretty eyes,
Same sweet little smile
You had those same pretty eyes,
Same sweet little smile.
I had dreamt about the sweet things
We used to do, when you was a child

You were my childhood sweetheart
Love you now, and loved you then
You were my childhood sweetheart
I love you now and I loved you then
And when I'll leave you down the twilight
I'll go to sleep and dream again.

Well, I'm driftin' and driftin' like a ship out on the sea
Yes, I'm driftin' and driftin' like a ship out on the sea
Ah, you know I ain't got nobody in this world to care for me

Ah, if my baby would only take me back again
Mm, if my baby would only take me back again
Well, you know I ain't good for nothin', darlin', and I haven't got a friend

Please come back, baby, baby, please come back home
Please come back home, baby, baby, please come back home
I wanna show you just how much I love you, and how it feels to be alone

. . .



Well, up in the evening down in Mobile, Alabama
Working on the railroad with the steel driving hammer
Gotta make some money to buy some brand new shoes
Tryin' to find somebody to take away these blues
"She don't love me" hear them singing in the sun
Payday's coming and my work is all done

Later in the evening when the sun is sinking low
All day I been waiting for the whistle to blow
Sitting in a teepee built right on the tracks
Rolling them bones until the foreman comes back
Pick up you belongings boys and scatter about
We've got an off-schedule train comin' two miles about

Everybody's scrambling, running around
Picking up their money, tearing the teepee down
Foreman wants to panic, 'bout to go insane
Trying to get the workers out the way of the train
Engineer blows the whistle loud and long
Can't stop the train, gotta let it roll on
