Bye Bye Johnny

Drew out all her money from the Southern Trust
Put her little boy aboard a Greyhound bus
Leaving Louisiana for the Golden West
Down came the tears from her happiness
Her own little son called Johnny B. Goode
Is gonna make some motion pictures back in Hollywood

Singing bye, bye, bye, bye
Singing bye, bye, bye, bye
Goodbye, Johnny
Goodbye, Johnny B. Goode

She remembered taking money out from gathering crops
And buying Johnny's guitar at a broker shop
As long as he could play it by the railroad side
And wouldn't get in trouble, she was satisfied
Never thought that there would be a day like this
When she would have to give her son a goodbye kiss

Singing bye, bye, bye, bye
Singing bye, bye, bye, bye
Goodbye, Johnny
Goodbye, Johnny B. Goode, alright

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
Build a mansion for her by the railroad track
So every time they heard the locomotive roar
They'd be standing, waving at the kitchen door

Singing bye, bye, bye, bye
Oh, bye, bye, bye, bye
Goodbye, Johnny
Goodbye, Johnny B. Goode

Singing bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, Johnny
Goodbye, Johnny B. Goode
One more time, one more time

Bye, bye, bye, bye
Singing bye, bye, bye, bye
Goodbye, Johnny
Goodbye, Johnny B. Goode
