Lyrics
(One, two - one, two)
Way down in Louisiana, close to New -
(No, I can't - I can't hear you anyway)
(You always turn your volume up 'cause a-)
(Need more volume on the earphones or somethin'?)
(Nah, it's just -, I couldn't hear James) (oh)
(It's like in rehearsal, right?) (Huh?)
(Just like in rehearsal, you know it's -)
(Just like in rehearsal for Vegas)
(Whatever the hell that was)
(Alright, let's try this again)
(One, two - one, two, three)
Way down in Louisiana
(Not hearin' myself now)
(Hearin' yourself? Okay, hold on)
(Turn him up a little bit) (hol', hol')
(Say something, Elvis)
(Okay, but this side's out)
(Are you hearin' yourself, now E?) (Yeah)
(Okay, cool) (wait, let me get my earphones in)
Mmm, how I love Jesus
(Okay)
(You're alright now?) (Yeah)
(One, two - one, two, three)
Way down in Louisiana, close to New Orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreen
Stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode
Who never ever learned to read or write so well
But he could play the guitar just like a ringin' a bell
Go, go
Go, Johnny, go, go
Go, Johnny, go, said go
Go, Johnny, go, go
Go, Johnny, go, go
Johnny B. Goode
His mama told him "One day, you will be a man
You will be the leader of a big ol' band
Many people comin' from a miles around
To hear you play your music when the sun goes down
Maybe one day, your name will be in lights
Saying 'Johnny B. Goode tonight'"
Go, go, go, go
Go, Johnny, go, go
Go, Johnny, go, said go, go, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Go Johnny, go, go
Johnny B. Goode (oh, yeah)
His mama told him "One day, you will be a man
You will be the leader of a big ol' band
Many people comin' from a miles around
To hear you play your music when the sun goes down
Maybe one day, your name will be in lights
Saying 'Johnny B. Goode tonight'"
Go, go, go, go
Go, Johnny, go, go
Go, Johnny, go, said go, go, go, go
Go, Johnny, go, go
Go, Johnny, go, go
Johnny B. Goode
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
(No)
('Ts weird, innit? Those headphones? Phew)
