[00:00.31]Johnny B. Goode (Live 1974) - Carpenters
[00:01.69]Lyrics by:Charles Berry
[00:02.72]Composed by:Charles Berry
[00:18.25]Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans
[00:20.79]Way back up on the woods among the evergreens
[00:22.70]There stood an log cabin made of earth and wood
[00:24.77]Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode
[00:26.89]Who'd never ever learned to read or write so well
[00:28.72]But he could play a guitar just like a ringing a bell
[00:30.73]Go go go Johnny
[00:32.66]Go go go Johnny
[00:34.73]Go go go Johnny
[00:36.71]Go go go Johnny
[00:38.70]Go go Johnny B. Goode
[00:42.96]He used to carry his guitar in a gunnysack
[00:45.02]Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
[00:46.94]Old engineers in the train would see him sitting in the shade
[00:49.21]Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made
[00:51.10]The people passed him by they would stop and say
[00:53.30]Oh my but that little country boy could play
[00:55.22]Go go go Johnny
[00:57.01]Go go go Johnny
[00:58.94]Go go go Johnny
[01:00.90]Go go go Johnny
[01:02.87]Go go Johnny B. Goode
[01:31.02]His mother told him some day you will be a man
[01:33.34]And he will be the leader of a big old band
[01:35.37]Many people coming from miles around
[01:37.44]To hear him play your music when the sun goes down
[01:39.47]Maybe some day your name will be in lights
[01:41.13]Saying "Johnny B. Goode tonight"
[01:42.82]Go go go go go Johnny
[01:45.01]Go go go Johnny
[01:46.92]Go go go Johnny
[01:48.95]Go go go Johnny
[01:50.77]Go go Johnny B. Goode
