Sam Cooke Frankie & Johnny

Đóng góp: 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
Y eah
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

Wr ong
Now Frankie you know darn well that I love you
