Deep down in Louisianna
Jauh di dalam Louisianna
close to New Orleans
dekat dengan New Orleans
way back up in the woods
jalan menuju hutan
among the evergreens
di antara pepohonan
there stand a country cabin
disana beridiri kabin desa
made of clay and wood
dibuat dari tanah liat dan kayu
where lives a young country boy
dimana hiduplah pemuda desa
named Johnny B.Goode
bernama Johnny B Goode
he never ever learned
dia tak pernah belajar
to read or write a book so well
tuk membaca ataupun menulis buku dengan baik
but he could play his guitar
tapi dia bisa memainkan gitar
just like a-ringing a bell
seperti bunyikan bel
Go go, go Johnny go go go

He used to carry his guitar
Dia dulunya biasa membawa gitarnya
in a gunny sack
dalam karung goni
sit beneath the trees
duduk di bawah pohon
by the railroad track
dekat rel kerta api
Oh sitting and a-playing
Oh duduk dan bermain
in the shade
dalam bayangan
drumming to the rhythm
bermain drun dengan ritme
that the drivers made
yang pengemudi itu mainkan
People passing by
Orang-orang lewat
used to stop and say
biasanya berhenti dan berkata
my oh my
oh wowo
that country boy can play
bocah desa itu bisa bermain
Go go, go Johnny go go go
Ayo ayo ayo Johnny ayo ayo ayo

Well his mama told him
Ya ibunya bilang padanya
someday you will be a man
suatu hari dia akan menjadi seseorang
And you will be the leader
dan kau akan jadi pemimpin
of a big old band
band tua yang besar
Many people coming
Banyak orang datang
from miles around
dari jauh
to hear you play your music
tuk dengarkan kau memainkan musikmu
till the sun goes down
sampai Matahari terbenam
Maybe some day
Mungkin suatu hari
your name will be in light
namamu kan jadi cahaya
saying: Johnny
Berkata: Johnny
