Good F Who never learned to read or write at all Bb But he could play the guitar just like ringing a bell Bb Eb Go, go, go Johnny go, go, go Johnny, go go Bb F Eb Go Johnny go, go, go go Johnny B. Good His mama told him "someday you will be a man And you will be the leader of a big band Many people coming from miles around To hear your playing music when the sun goes down Maybe someday you will be in lights saying Johnny B.
