=== Basic Lyrics ===

Way down in Louisiana, out in New Orleans,
A kid would strum his guitar, but he couldn’t see the strings.
He’d play all night, but he’d hit the wrong frets,
Missin’ half the notes and messin’ up his sets.

He tried real hard, but the crowd just sighed,
‘Til he put some specs on, now my oh my!

Go, go! Johnny C. Goode!
Go, go! Johnny C. Goode!
Go, go! Johnny C. Goode!
You finally see, so now you’re good!

His mama told him, "Son, you need to face the facts,
Ain’t no way you’re hittin’ chords if you can’t read the neck."
But he was too stubborn, wouldn’t get a pair,
Until he tripped onstage and fell off his chair.

The crowd just laughed, but the band all knew,
"Boy, get some glasses, or your tour is through!"

Go, go! Johnny C. Goode!
Go, go! Johnny C. Goode!
Go, go! Johnny C. Goode!
You finally see, so now you’re good!

Next show came, and he walked out tall,
Sporting brand-new glasses—could finally see it all.
He played real slick, no bum notes to be found,
Now he’s got the hottest rockin’ show in town.

The people cheered, and the money flowed,
He shook his head, said, "I shoulda done this long ago!"

Go, go! Johnny C. Goode!
Go, go! Johnny C. Goode!
Go, go! Johnny C. Goode!
He put on the specs, now he plays real good!
