Frankie and Johnny
were sweethearts

at least that's the way
the story goes
Frankie bought
everyihing for Johnny

from his sports car
to his Ivy League
clothes
Oh but he was

doing her wrong
A friend came running
to Frankie

said you know
I wouldn't tell you
no lie
I saw your man
riding in his Jaguar

with a chick named
Nellie Blye
Oh and if he was
your man honey

let me tell you he was
doing you wrong
And peeked

in a swinging place
And there she saw
Johnny with a woman

he had his arms
around her waist
Wah he was
a man alright

but Frankie could see
that he was
doing her wrong
And up with a

long forty-four
She shot once, twice
three times

and Johnny fell on
the hard wood floor
But the last thing
he told her was

Frankie
you know I love you
why?
I was telling her

aboutyou
Frankie
You know I love you

Frankie
You know that I love you
yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah

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
And I know
I was doing you wrong

wrong. wrong
let me tell you
