Sam Cooke - Frankie And Johnny Lyrics
Frankie and Johnny was sweetheartsat least thats the way the story goesFrankie bought everything for Johnnyfrom his sports car to his Ivy League clothesHe was a man alright, oh but he was doing her wrongjust to show you what can happenA friend came running to Frankieshe said you know I wouldn't tell you no lieI saw your man riding in his Jaguarwith a chick named Nellie BlyeHe was your man honey, oh and he was doing you wronglet me tell the storyFrankie ran around the cornerand peeked in a swinging placethere she saw Johnny with the womanhe had his arms around her waistaw...he was a man alright but Frankie could see that he wasdoing her wrong. And oh let me tell youFrankie reached down in her pocketbookand up with a long forty-fourshe shot once, twice, three times andJohnny fell to the hard wood flooraw...he was a man alright but Frankie shot him because he wasdoing her wrongBut the last thing he told her wasFrankie, you know I love youWhy? Honey why did you do that?Frankie.. I was telling her about youFrankie.. you know I love youFrankie.. you know that I love youyeah, yeah , yeah, yeahNow Frankie, you know darn well that I love youFrankie..
