 Back up in the woods on top of a hill
      Em                                     
There stood an old hut made of earth and wood

There lived a country boy named Johnny B Goode

Old engineer in the train sitting in the shade
Em                                  D       Em  
Strummin' with the rhythm that them drivers made

You gotta be the leader of a reggae band

To hear you play until the sun goes down
                      D              Em
