|
Well she drew out all her money from the Southern trust
|
|
And put her little boy aboard a greyhound bus
|
|
Leaving Louisianna for the golden west
|
|
Down came the tears from her happiness
|
|
Her own little son, named Johnny B. Goode
|
|
Was gonna make some motion pictures out in Hollywood
|
|
I said Bye Bye Bye Bye
|
|
I said Bye Bye Bye Bye
|
|
I said Bye Bye Johnny Bye Bye Johnny B. Goode
|
|
She remembered making money out from gathering crops
|
|
Buying Johnny's guitar at a broker shop
|
|
As long as he would play it by the railroad side
|
|
And wouldn't get in trouble she'll be satisfied
|
|
Never thought there'd ever come a day like this
|
|
When she got to give her son a goodbye kiss
|
|
I said Bye Bye Bye Bye
|
|
I said Bye Bye Bye Bye
|
|
I said Bye Bye Johnny Bye Bye Johnny B. Goode
|
|
Well she finally got the letter she was dreaming of
|
|
Johnny wrote and told her he had fell in love
|
|
As soon as he was married he would bring her back
|
|
And build a mansion for them by the railroad track
|
|
Every time they heard a locomotiv roar
|
|
They'd be standing, a waiting by the kitchen door
|
|
I said Bye Bye Bye Bye
|
|
I said Bye Bye Bye Bye Bye
|
|
I said Bye Bye Johnny Bye Bye Johnny B. Goode
|
|
I said Bye Bye Bye Bye
|
|
I said Bye Bye Bye Bye
|
|
I said Bye Bye Johnny Bye Bye Johnny B. Goode
|
|
I said Bye Bye Bye Bye
|

I said Bye Bye Johnny Bye Bye Johnny B. Goode
|
