"Frankie And Johnny" Lyrics

4.0 / 5
Song updated, review now!
Frankie and Johnny was sweethearts
At least thats the way the story goes
Frankie bought everything for Johnny
From his sports car to his Ivy League clothes

He was a man alright
Oh
But he was doing her wrong
Just to show you what can happen

A friend came running to Frankie
She said you know I wouldn't tell you no lie
I saw your man riding in his Jaguar with a chick named Nellie Blye

He was your man honey
Oh
And he was doing you wrong
Let me tell the story

Frankie ran around the corner
And peeked in a swinging place
There she saw Johnny with the woman
He had his arms around her waist

Awww
He was a man alright
But Frankie could see that he was doing her wrong
And
Oh
Let me tell you

Frankie reached down in her pocketbook
And up with a long forty-four she shot once
Twice
Three times and Johnny fell to the hard wood floor

Awww
He was a man alright
But Frankie shot him because he was doing her wrong

But the last thing he told her was Frankie you know I love you
Why
Honey why did you do that
Frankie I was telling her about you
Frankie you know I love you
Frankie you know that I love you
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Now Frankie you know darn well that I love you
Frankie
I'll always love you baby
Frankie you know I can't do without you
Frankie you know I love you
And I know
I know I was doing you wrong
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
Now Frankie you know darn well that I love you
Frankie
