Owens, Buck - Johnny B. Goode Lyrics
Deep down in Louisiana, close to New Orleans
Back up in the woods among the evergreens
There stood an old cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B.Goode.
Who'd never, ever learned to read or write, so well
Go, go, go, Johnny go, go,
Go Johnny go, go, go, Johnny go,
Go, go, go, go, Johnny go,
Go, go, Johnny B Goode.
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Sit beside the tree by the railroad track
The engineer would see him sittin' in the shade
Listen to the rhythm that the drivers made
The people comin' by they would stop and say
Go, go, go, Johnny go, go,
Go, Johnny go, go, go, Johnny go,
Go, go, Johnny B Goode.
[Instrumental]
His mama told him someday you will be a man
And you will be the leader of a big old band
Many people come from miles around
To hear you play your music till the sun goes down
Maybe someday your name will be in lights
A sayin' Johnny B Goode tonight
Go, go, go, Johnny go, go,
Go, Johnny go, go, go, Johnny go,
Go, go, Johnny B Goode...

I would have liked to see Buck Owens and Chuck Berry perform Johnnie B. Good together.
On this day in 1958 {February 22nd} Chuck Berry performed "Johnny B. Goode" on the ABC-TV program 'Dick Clark's Saturday Night Beechnut Show'...
Two months later on April 28th it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; eventually it peaked at #8 and spent 15 weeks on the Top 100...
And on July 26th, 1969 Buck Owens' covered version peaked at #1 {for 2 weeks} on Billboard's Hot Country singles chart...
R.I.P. Mr. Clark {1929 - 2012} & Mr. Berry celebrated his 86th birthday this past October 18th
Buck not only sang country------he Looked Country. There was always a lot of humor in his songs (Waitin' in Your Welfare Line). He had a great band.
Truly a great Country artist!
