Back to the Future the Musical - Johnny B. Goode Lyrics


MARTY MCFLY: (spoken)
Okay, ah, so, uh, this one's an oldie...
Well, it's an oldie where I come from.
Okay, so this is a blues riff in B flat.
Watch me for the changes, and, um...
Yeah, try to keep up, okay?

(sing)
Way 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-a Johnny B. Goode
Who never ever learned to read or write so well
But he could play the guitar like he's ringing a bell

Go, go
Go, Johnny, go, go
Go, Johnny, go, go
Go, Johnny, go, go
Go, Johnny, go, go, go
Johnny B. Goode

His mama told him,
"Someday, you will be a man
And you will be the leader of a big ol' band
Now, many people coming from-a miles around
To hear you playing music when the sun come down
Maybe someday your name will be in light
Saying "Johnny B. Goode tonight!""

Go, go! (Go, go,)
Go, Johnny, go, go
Go, Johnny, go, go
Go, Johnny, go, go
Go, Johnny, go, go, go
Johnny B. Goode!

(spoken)
Guess you guys aren't ready for that yet...
But your kids are gonna love it...
