Lady B. Goode - Chuck Berry

It was down in Louisiana, right there in New Orleans

Back there in the '60s was a little teen queen

Fell then the lassie in love with a lad

Till it took him to vindicate take the feelings she had

She pleaded as she promised every prayer she could

Till everybody whispered to her, «Lady B. Goode»

She followed him around where he would play his guitar

Till he got so popular they made him a star

Then she could only see him on a TV screen

And hoped someday that he’d come back to New Orleans

Everybody liked her and was knocking on wood

But soon there came a baby from the Lady B. Goode

She wondered if he’s ever coming back someday

The brighter lights and glory may just keep him away

But then he wrote and told her «Do not be dismayed

The love you have for me will never be betrayed

They want me do a movie about my livelihood

And I want you to play the part of Lady B. Goode»

She went to see the movie when it hit the screen

Babysitting Johnnie Jr. down in New Orleans

He saw his daddy sing the song he heard in school

The one his mother told him about the golden rule

Tears filled her eyes when they misunderstood

When everybody knew that she was Lady B. Goode
