Frankie and Johnny

[Verse 1]
Frankie and me, we were lovers
Oh lordy how we did love
Swore we'd be true to each other
Just as true as stars above
I was her man, she caught me doing her wrong

[Verse 2]
My luck in poker was fading
When a new gal caught my eye
I gambled, I tried to change my luck
With a chick named Nellie Bly
I was Frankie's man but I was doing her wrong

[Verse 3]
Yeah! Frankie came looking to find me
Yes, she wasn't looking for fun
For in her sweet loving hand
She was toting' a .44 gun
To shoot her man if he was doing' her wrong

[Verse 4]
Well Frankie looked into the bar room
And right there in front of her eyes
There was her loving Johnny
Making love to that Nellie Bly
I was her man, she caught me doing her wrong

[Verse 5]
Frankie, I beg, please don't shoot me
Well they'll put you away in a cell
You know they'll put you where the cold wind blows
From the hottest corner of hell
I'm your man, I know I done you wrong

[Verse 6]
Easy roll me over, real easy
Easy roll me over, real slow
Roll me over real gently
Cause my wound hurts me so
Well I was her man
Well I done her wrong

[Verse 7]
Well Frankie told Johnny
Well this is the end of my song
I was her man, well I done her wrong
Well , hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Done her wrong
