Bye Bye Johnny - Jim/Jesse & Joy/The Virginia Boys/Allen Shelton
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 of Johnny B Goode
Was gonna make some motion pictures out in Hollywood
Bye bye bye bye
Bye bye bye bye
Bye bye Johnny
Goodbye 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 she was satisfied
But never thought that there would come a day like this
When she'd have to give her own son a goodbye kiss
Bye bye bye bye
Bye bye bye bye
Bye bye Johnny
Goodbye 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 she was married he would bring her back
And build a mansion for them by the railroad track
So every time they heard the locomotive roar
They'd be a standin'
A wavin' by the kitchen door
I said
Bye bye bye bye
Bye bye bye bye
Bye bye Johnny
Goodbye Johnny B Goode
