Frankie and Johnny - Brook Benton (布鲁克·本顿)

Little Frankie went down to the barroom

She asked for a glass of beer

She said "Hey bartender

Has my Johnny been here "

"He's my man but he's done me wrong"

The bartender said "Frankie

Ya know I won't tell ya no lie"

"He left here about a minute ago with a gal named Alice Fry"

"He's your man but he's doin' you wrong"

Frankie was a good little woman

Surely everybody knows

She paid one hundred dollars for Johnny's new suit of clothes

She loved her man but he done her wrong

Well then Frankie went down Broadway with a razor in her hand

She said "Stand back all you women

I'm here for my cheatin' man"

"Yes he's my man but he's done me wrong"

It was on a Friday mornin' about a ha'past nine o'clock

Frankie pulled her 44 and fired three fatal shots

She shot her man 'cause he done her wrong

(Why don'tcha run Frankie) they said

(Frankie why don't you run)

'Cause here come the Chief Of Police

With the 44 smokeless gun

You killed your man

We know he done you wrong

He done you wrong Frankie

You shoulda shot him forty times

I'm a witness Frankie I was there

When you shot that man I saw
