She drew out all her money at the southern trust And put her little boy aboard a greyhound bus Leavin' Louisiana for the golden west Down came her tears from her happiness
Her own little son named Johnny be good Was gonna make some motion picture out in Hollywood Bye bye, bye bye Bye bye Johnny good bye Johnny be good
She remembered takin' money earned from gathering crop And buying Johnnys guitar at a brokеr's shop As long as he could play it by the railroad side And wouldn't gеt in trouble he was satisfied
But never thought that there'd ever come a day like this When she would have to give her son a good-bye kiss Bye bye, bye bye Bye bye Johnny bye bye Johnny be good
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 her by the railroad track
So every time they heard the locomotive roar They'd be a standin', a wavin' in the kitchen door Bye bye, bye bye Bye bye Johnny good bye Johnny be goodTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
