Frankie

She was a fine lookin woman had a man named Johnny

And she loved him

She bought him a car and a suit of clothes

Oh to see them

Walkin arm-in-arm down along Canal Street

Frankie loved Johnny Lord everybody knows

Well Frankie

She came home one evening just a little bit early and she thought

I m gonna stop at the corner for a bottle of beer

So she stopped there and she told her troubles to the fat bartender

Said Tell me Fat Daddy has my lovin Johnny man been here

He said Frankie Well I m awful sorry you asked me that question

You know I m about as honest as man can be

I saw Johnny he was a walkin down Main and a-feelin no pain

Just a slippin and a slidin with a gal named Annabel Lee

Well Frankie

Said Oh no no well it can t be so because I know

I know my lovin man wouldn t do me wrong

So she sat there had a few more beers shed a few more tears

Said I m the best woman that scoundrel ever had

Then Frankie

She got into a taxi and she said to the driver said

Listen don t you stop for nothin on the way down town

I ve got a 45 here and I m makin it clear

I m lookin for the man who s givin me the runaround

Well Frankie she got out on south Clark Street looked in the window

And she saw she saw Johnny and Annabel swingin there

So Frankie she took deadly aim in that deadly game

She shot her man in the middle of his big affair

Now you ve heard

You ve heard the story bout Frankie and her man named Johnny

And you know that was a game should have never been played

And the moral of this sad tale I m a tellin you

If you re gonna fool around then you better pull the shades

If you re gonna fool around then you better pull the shades
