How wrong can this hand be
But if you think I'm gonna let her be free
How wrong can this hand be
‘Cause I love you Miss Ann
And that's the way it's going to be

JOHNNY B. GOODE
Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans,
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood,
Where lived a country boy name of Johnny B. Goode
Who never ever learned to read or write so well,
But he could play a guitar just like ringin' a bell.

Go Go
Go Johnny Go
Go Go
Go Johnny Go
Go Go
Go Johnny Go
Go Go
Go Johnny Go
Go Go
Johnny B. Goode

He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
Oh sit beneath the tree in the railroad shade
Strummin' to the rhythm that the drivers made
People passing by they'd stop and say
Oh my but that little country boy can play

Go Go
Go Johnny Go
Go Go
Go Johnny Go
Go Go
Go Johnny Go
Go Go
Go Johnny Go
Go
Go Johnny B. Goode

His mama told him someday he would be a man,
And he would be the leader of a rock and roll band.
Many people coming from miles around
To hear him play his music when the sun go down
Maybe someday his name would be in lights
Saying Johnny B. Goode tonight.
Go Go
Go Johnny Go
Go
Go Johnny Go
Go Go
Go Johnny Go
Go Go
Go Johnny Go
Go Go
Go Go Johnny B. Goode

HIGHWAY 61 REVISITED
God said to Abraham, "Kill me a son"
Abe says, "Man, you must be putting me on"
God say, "No". Abe say, "What?"
God say, "You can do what you want Abe, but
The next time you see me comin' you better run"
Abe says, "Where do you want this killing done?"
God says, "Out on Highway 61".

Georgia Sam, he had a bloody nose
Welfare department, they wouldn't give him no clothes
He asked poor Howard, "Where can I go?"
Howard said, "There's only one place I know"
Sam said, "Tell me quick, man, I got to run"
Oh, Howard just pointed with his gun
And said, "That way, down Highway 61"

Mack the Finger said to Louie the King
"I got 40 red-white-and-blue shoestrings
And a thousand telephones that don't ring
Do you know where I can get rid of these things?"
And Louie the King said, "Let me think for a moment, son"
Then he said, "Yes, I think it can be easily done
Just take everything down to Highway 61"

Now, the fifth daughter on the twelfth night
Told the first father that things weren't right
"My complexion," she says, "is much too white"
He said, "Come here and step into the light"
He said, "Yes, you're right, let me tell the second mother this has been done"
But the second mother was with the seventh son
And they were both out on Highway 61

Now, the roving gambler he was very bored
Trying to create a next world war
He found a promoter who nearly fell off the floor
He said, "I never engaged in this kind of thing before
But yes, I think it can be very easily done
We'll just put some bleachers out in the sun
And have it on Highway 61"

I LOVE EVERYBODY
Well, I'm going to the city
Just to see what I can find
Got to get me somebody
I got the same thing on my mind
Got the same thing on my mind
Oh yeah, I do

I ain't tired, no I ain't hungry
But I'm horny as I can be
Been a long time comin' baby
Better come get some of me
Better come get some of me,
Yeah, comon baby

No I can't stay in the East, man
And I sure don't like the West
I can't stand the North and South boys
But I sure love all the West
No I'm on the West now
Yeah, I dig it man

I got women in California
Man, in New York and between
It's a fulltime operation
Trying to keep my business clean
Trying to keep my business clean now
I'm about to get straight folks
I'm workin' on it now

HUSTLED DOWN IN TEXAS
You know I hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too
Well! hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too
You know wouldn't nobody let me do what I want to do

You know I travel 'round in Georgia, I made the southern scene
I traveled 'round in Georgia, I made the southern scene
Just trying to find somebody, a friend who's deal was clean

Use me for your fool, sign on the dotted line
Don't ask questions, stupid, 'cause your southern can is mine
Hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too,
Wouldn't nobody let me do what I want to do

Ah baby, don't try jiving me no more
Ah baby baby, don't try jiving no more
'Cause I'm hip to your jiving, down the road I go

Listen to me people, try to understand, can't get good from evil, so do the best you can
I want to tell you people, please try to understand,
You know you can't get good from evil so do the best you can

You know I hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too
Yeah, hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too,
Wouldn't nobody let me do what I want to do

I HATE EVERYBODY
People may laugh but that don't bother me
People may laugh but that don't bother me
(Don't bother me)
I'm making lots of money baby
I'm happy as I can be

I can't holler mercy, that don't mean a thing
I can't holler mercy, that don't mean a thing
(Mean a thing)
The world's all sinning
That's why I love to sing, love to sing

If I ain't drunk it's only because I'm high
Yeah if I ain't drunk it's only because I'm high
(Because I'm high)
I couldn't find you, I'm everyday at the sky

Well, I may be crazy but man at least I'm cool
I may be crazy but man at least I'm cool
(At least I'm cool)
I may be all out of luck but I ain't nobody's fool

FAST LIFE RIDER
Don't believe a word you said
I can't stand the way you do
Lordy, Lord I'll wait
Comin' home to you
Lord at first I'd rather
Sit and listen to you
Going down

Stayed out last night
And the night before
I done changed the lock
Woman on my door
Well Lord at first I'd rather
Sit and listen to you
Well, it's lies that's all

Done bought me a ticket
The trunk's already gone
Lord don't bother
Ain't gonna be here long
Lord first I'd rather
This be the last of you
Goin' down
Ohhh, ohhh
