jerry lee lewis - johnny b. goode/carol lyrics

[verse 1: johnny b. goode]
deep down in louisiana close to new orleans
way back up in the woods among the evergreens
stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
lived a country boy named johnny b. goode
never ever learned to write so well
but he could play a guitar and he could sure give it h+ll

[chorus]
go, go johnny go, go
go johnny go, go
go+go+go+go+go+go+go+go+go+go+go johnny go
go, good lord, johnny b. goode

[instrumental break]
play your guitar, k!ller

[verse 2]
his mama told him someday you will be a man
the big ol’ leader of a stud+hoss band
many people gonna come to see you from miles around
hear you playin’ your mother+humpin’ music when the sun’s goin’ down
maybe someday, son, you gonna be in lights
whoo! give it to me, let’s a+hang it in tonight

[chorus]
go!
go+go+go+go+go+go, johnny, go go
go! good lord, johnny b. goode
[instrumental break]
kenneth lovelace, break it now!

[chorus: carol]
whoa, carol, don’t let him steal your heart away
we gotta learn to dance if it takes all night and day

[verse 1]
climb into my rolls+royce, and we can move on out
i know a mother+humpin’ joint, we can sing and shout
it ain’t so far away honey, up in the edge of the woods
if it gets too hot inside, we’ll make it real good
a little humble woman takes your hat and gives you somethin’ else
but she d+mn sure won’t leave you hangin’ up on a shelf

[chorus]
ohh, carol, don’t let him steal your heart away
we gotta get it, get it, give it to me, gotta have it, if it takes all night and day

[instrumental break]
whoa, yeah
whoa, whoo

[bridge]

carol, don’t let him steal your heart away
play your harp, son
[chorus]
oh, carol, don’t let him steal your heart away
i got to, got to learn to dance if it takes me all night and day
whoa, carol, don’t let him steal your heart away
i gotta learn to dance if it takes all night and day

[interlude]
i can play my piano, i can do it real good
jerry lee lewis ain’t no fool, i can
if i can’t get it you can forget it ’cause it can’t be got, and i thank god i can still hang it in
ladies and gentlemen, i hope you enjoyed, this is the grand ole opry
in memphis, tennessee at sun records
hot a’ mighty
seventeen years ago, sam philips cut a record on me called “crazy arms”
and i’ll be d+mned if time ain’t waitin’ on n0body
i look in yonder, and
there’s his son, knox philips
hangin’ it in like gunga din

[chorus]
oh, carol, don’t let him steal your heart away
i gotta learn to dance if it takes me all night and day

[yodeling]

[outro]
cool it!
oh, carol, don’t let me steal your heart away
i’ve got to hang it in, baby, if it takes all night and day
ohh!
