Johnny B. Goode / Carol / Promised Land (Live)

Deep down in Lousiana, 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
He never, ever learned to read or write, so well
But he could play a guitar just like a ringing a bell

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

He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
Oh, the engineer would see him sitting in the shade
Listen with the rhythm that the drivers made
People coming by they would stop and wait
Oh, my but that little country boy could play

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

His mama told him someday you will be a man
You will be the leader of a big old band
Many people coming from miles around
To hear you play the guitar when the sun go down
Maybe someday your name will be in lights and
Johnny B. Goode tonight

Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go, go, go
Go (go)
Go (go)
Go
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go oo oo oo

Oh Carol, don't let 'em steal your heart away
I'm going learn to dance if it takes me all night and day

I'm into mama, she too weak, cruise on out
I know I stringing let a joint where we can jump in and out
Walk out off the highway, let's no longer ride
You park your car out in the open you can walk inside
Your cutie takes your hat, you can thank her ma'am
Every time you make this finger, that's yours to jam

Oh Carol
Carol
Carol
Carol
Oh Carol, don't let 'em steal your heart away
I'm going learn to dance if it takes me all night and day

Left my home and all for Virginia
California on my mind
Battle axe, grey hound, road I'm in the rally overthrowing Caroline
Stop this surely, if I pass or I kill, never was I a minute late
90 miles outta Atlanta by sundown, rolling out of Jordan
I had a little trouble, turned into a struggle, half way across alobam
The horn broke down and lasts for stranded, downtown burning it
