Frankie And Johnnie Twist

Frankie and Johnny was sweethearts

At least that's the way the story goes

Frankie bought everything for Johnny

From his sports car to his Ivy League clothes

Aw 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 ridin' in his Jaguar

With a chick named Nellie Blye

Oh if he was your man honey

Let me tell you he was doing you wrong

Let me tell the story

Frankie ran around the corner

And peeked in a swinging place

And there she saw Johnny with a woman

He had his arms around her waist

Aw 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 on the hard wood floor

Aw he was a man alright

But she 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 yeah

Now Frankie you know good and 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 and I know I was doing wrong

You wrong wrong wrong wrong

Frankie baby you know I love you
