Johnny B Goode (live at the BBC)

eep down in Louisianna

Close to New Orleans

Way back up in the woods

Among the evergreens

There stand a country cabin

Made of clay and wood

Where lives a young country boy

Named Johnny B. Goode

He never ever learned

To read or write a book so well

But he could play his guitar

Just like a-ringing a bell



Go go, go Johnny go go go!

Go Johnny go go go!

Go Johnny go go go!

Go Johnny go go go!

Aah Johnny B. Goode!



He used to carry his guitar

In a gunny sack

Sit beneath the trees

By the railroad track

Oh sitting and a-playing

In the shade

Drumming to the rhythm

That the drivers made

People passing by

Used to stop and say

My oh my

That 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!

Aah Johnny B. Goode!



Well his mama told him

Someday you will be a man

And you will be the leader

Of a big old band

Many people coming

From miles around

To hear you play your music

Till the sun goes down

Maybe some day

Your name will be in light

Saying Johnny B. Goode tonight!



Go go, go Johnny go go go!

Go Johnny go go go!

Go Johnny go go go!

Go Johnny go go go!

Aah Johnny B.Goode!

e were sailing along (Twist and shout)

On Moonlight Bay (Ooh)

We could hear the voices singing (I like it!)

They seemed to say (Keep on, Bongo)

You have borken my heart (Oh, twist and shout)

So go away



[Are the Beatles gone?



No, they're here.



Oh.]



With you big, far, hairy legs

On Moonlight Bay

On Moonlight Bay



Ooohhh

Three Cool Cats (Decca Audition)

hree cool cats

Three cool cats

Are coming up in a beat up car

Spitting up a lift of candy bar

Talking on about how sharp they are

Three cool cats



Three cool chicks

Are walking down the street

Swinging their hips

Splitting up a bag of potato chips

I think cool cats really did flip

Three cool chicks

Yeah three cool chicks



Well up came that first cool cat

He said, "Man look at that

Man, do you see what I see?"

"Well I want that middle chick"

"I want that little chick"

"Hey man save once chick for me"

Hey, well three cool chicks

Three cool chicks



Well they love like angels from up above

And three cool cats really fell in love

But three cool chicks

Made three fools out of three cool cats

Three cool cats



Well up came that first cool cat

He said, "Man look at that

Man, do you see what I see?"

"Well I want that middle chick"

"I want that little chick"

"Hey man save one chick for me"

Yeah ah



Three cool chicks

Three cool chicks

They look like angels from up above

And three cool cats really fell in love

And three cool chicks

Made three fools out of three cool cats

Three cool cats



Three cool cats

Three cool cats



[Three cool cats, oh three cool cats.]

I Need You

ou don't realize how much I need you

Love you all the time and never leave you

Please come on back to me

I'm lonely as can be

I need you



Said you had a thing or two to tell me

How was I to know you would upset me?

I didn't realize as I looked in your eyes

You told me



Oh yes, you told me

You don't want my loving anymore

That's when it hurt me

And feeling like this

I just can't go on anymore



Please remember how I feel about you

I could never really live without you

So come on back and see

Just what you mean to me

I need you



But when you told me

You don't want my loving anymore

That's when it hurt me

And feeling like this

I just can't go on anymore



Please remember how I feel about you

I could never really live without you

So come on back and see

Just what you mean to me

I need you

I need you

I need you

Lady Madonna

ady Madonna, children at your feet

Wonder how you manage to make ends meet

Who finds the money? When you pay the rent?

Did you think that money was Heaven sent?

Friday night arrives without a suitcase

Sunday morning creep in like a nun

Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace

See how they run



Lady Madonna, baby at your breast

Wonder how you manage to feed the rest



See how they run



Lady Madonna, lying on the bed

Listen to the music playing in your head



Tuesday afternoon is never ending

Wednesday morning papers didn't come

Thursday night you stockings needed mending

See how they run



Lady Madonna, children at your feet

Wonder how you manage to make ends meet

With A Little Help From My Friends

illy Shears



What would you think if I sang out of tune

Would you stand up and walk out on me?

Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song

And I'll try not to sing out of key

Oh I get by with a little help from my friends

Mm I get high with a little help from my friends

Mm going to try with a little help from my friends



What do I do when my love is away?

(Does it worry you to be alone?)

How do I feel by the end of the day?

(Are you sad because you're on your own?)

No I get by with a little help from my friends

Mm I get high with a little help from my friends

Mm going to try with a little help from my friends



(Do you need anybody?)

I need somebody to love

(Could it be anybody?)

I want somebody to love



(Would you believe in a love at first sight?)

Yes I'm certain that it happens all the time

(What do you see when you turn out the light?)

I can't tell you, but I know it's mine

Oh I get by with a little help from my friends

Mm I get high with a little help from my friends

Oh I'm going to try with a little help from my friends



(Do you need anybody?)

I just need somebody to love

(Could it be anybody?)

I want somebody to love



Oh I get by with a little help from my friends

Mm going to try with a little help from my friends

Oh I get high with a little help from my friends

Yes I get by with a little help from my friends

With a little help from my friends

All Things Must Pass (demo)

demo)

Sunrise doesn't last all morning

A cloudburst doesn't last all day

Seems my love is up

And has left you with no warning

But it's not always going to be this grey



All things must pass

All things must pass away



Sunset doesn't last all evening

A mind can blow those clouds away

After all this my love is up

And must be leaving

It has not always been this grey



All things must pass

All things must pass away



All things must pass

None of life's strings can last

So I must be on my way

And face another day



Now the darkness only stays at nighttime

In the morning it will fade away

Daylight is good

At arriving at the right time

It's not always going to be this grey



All things must pass

All things must pass away

All things must pass

All things must pass away

Piggies

ave you seen the little piggies

Crawling in the dirt?

And for all the little piggies

Life is getting worse

Always having dirt to play around in



Have you seen the bigger piggies

In their starched white shirts?

You will find the bigger piggies

Stirring up the dirt

Always have clean shirts to play around in



In their styes with all their backing

They don't care what goes on around

In their eyes there's something lacking

What they need's a damn good whacking



Everywhere there's lots of piggies

Living piggy lives

You can see them out for dinner

With their piggy wives

Clutching forks and knives to eat their bacon



[One more time...]
