Frankie & Johnny
They were lovers, yes they were (yes they were)
Uh huh, I just wanna tell you how they could
Love, love, oh yeah
They were true to each other, yeah
Just as true as the stars above
He was her man, he was her man
But he done her wrong
Yes he did, he done her wrong
Frankie went down to the dance hall
Yes she did, ahh
And tell that she looked in the window so high
High, oh yeah
When she saw her loving Johnny, yeah
With his arm around Ellis Bly
He was her man, he was her man
But he done her wrong
Yes he did, he done her wrong
They told me that Frankie shot Johnny once, ohh
They told me that Frankie shot Johnny twice, oh yeah
But the third time she shot him
That bullet took his life
The judge said to Frankie, yes he did, uh-huh
Just as plain as plain can be, oh, oh yeah
You have shot your loving Johnny, yeah
(Murder) in the first degree
He was her man (you shot your man)
You shot your man (you shot your man)
But he done her wrong (done her wrong)
Yes he did, he done her wrong
