intro:	the guitar kicks off with riff #1 accompanied by a stomping bass drum, the bass
	comes in on the second half on the riff, then follows riff #2 played with the
	entire band and finally riff #1 is repeated.

*note: as JLP writes in his book 'Go Tell The Mountain' he couldn't understand John
Fogerty's words, so he wrote the first two verses by himself and took the third from 
Willie Brown's "M. & O. Blues"
