Frankie and Johnny were lovers,
Lourdy how they could love.
Swore to be true to each other,
As true as the stars above.
I'm your man, and I won't do you no wrong.
Frankie walked into the bar room,
Ordered a bottle of beer.
She said, " Hey Mr Bar tender, has my love Johnny been here? He's my man, and he won't do me no wrong."
Frankie I beg you don't shoot me, they'll lock you away in a cell,
They'll lock you away where the sun don't shine in the darkest corner of hell.
He's my man, and he did me wrong.
