| Frankie and Johnny were sweethearts
|
| Oh, how they did love
|
| Promised to be true to each other
|
| Just true as the stars above
|
| He was her man (He was her man)
|
| But he done her wrong (But he done her wrong)
|
| Bring out the rubber tied buggy
|
| Bring out that old hack
|
| Taking my man to the graveyard, baby
|
| But he ain’t comin' back
|
| Shot her man (She shot her man)
|
| 'Cause he did her wrong ('Cause he did her wrong)
|
| Frank and Johnny went fishin'
|
| Down by the fishin' boat
|
| Frankie she caught a whale
|
| But his feet was cold
|
| He was her man (He was her man)
|
| And he ?(?)
|
| This is the end of the story
|
| This is the end of the song
|
| Frankie? |
| now, baby
|
| He won’t there for long
|
| He was her man (He was her man)
|
| But he did her wrong (But he done her wrong)
|
| He was her man (He was her man)
|
| But he did her wrong (But he done her wrong)
|
| Yeah, he was her man (He was her man)
|
| But he did her wrong (But he done her wrong) |
