Charles Edward Anderson "Chuck" Berry (born October 18, 1926) is an American guitarist, singer and songwriter, and one of the pioneers of rock and roll music. With songs such as "Maybellene" (1955), "Roll Over Beethoven" (1956), "Rock and Roll Music" (1957) and "Johnny B. Goode" (1958), Chuck Berry refined and developed rhythm and blues into the major elements that made rock and roll distinctive, with lyrics focusing on teen life and consumerism and utilizing guitar solos and showmanship that would be a major influence on subsequent rock music. more »

She drew out all her money out of the Southern Trust 
And 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 name 'o Johnny B. Goode 
Was gonna make some motion pictures out in Hollywood 
Bye, bye, bye, bye 
Bye, bye, bye, bye 
Bye bye Johnny 
Good bye Johnny B. Goode 
She remembered taking money out from gathering crop 
And 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 he was satisfied 
But never thought that there would come a day like this 
When she would have to give her son a goodby kiss 
Going 
Bye, bye, bye, bye 
Bye, bye, bye, bye 
Bye bye Johnny 
Good bye Johnny B. Goode 
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 'em by the railroad track 
So every time they heard the locomotive roar 
They'd be a' standin', a' wavin' by the kitchen door 
Howling 
Bye, bye, bye, bye 
Bye, bye, bye, bye 
Bye bye Johnny 
Good bye Johnny B. Goode
