Lyrics & Translation
English
Frankie & Johnny were sweethearts
At least, that's the way the story goes
Frankie bought everything for Johnny
From his sports car to his Ivy League clothes
Oh, he was a man alright
Oh, but he was doing wrong
Just to show you what came happen
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 Mary Bley
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 arm around her waist
Oh, he was a man alright
But Frankie could see that he was doing wrong
Oh, let me tell you
Frankie reached down in her pocketbook
And up with a long 44
She shot once, twice, three times
And Johnny fell on the hardwood floor
Oh, he was a man alright
But she shot him because he was doing 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
Frankie you know good 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
I'm your man and I know I was doing wrong

Frankie & Johnny (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Frankie y Johnny eran novios
Al menos, así es como va la historia
Frankie le compró todo a Johnny
Desde su coche deportivo hasta su ropa de la Ivy League
Oh, él era un hombre, de acuerdo
Oh, pero estaba haciendo mal
Solo para mostrarte lo que pasó
Una amiga vino corriendo hacia Frankie
Dijo, sabes que no te diría ninguna mentira
Vi a tu hombre conduciendo su Jaguar
Con una chica llamada Mary Bley
Oh, si él era tu hombre, cariño
Déjame decirte que te estaba engañando
Déjame contar la historia
Frankie corrió a la vuelta de la esquina
Y se asomó a un lugar animado
Y allí vio a Johnny con una mujer
Él tenía su brazo alrededor de la cintura de ella
Oh, él era un hombre, de acuerdo
Pero Frankie pudo ver que él estaba haciendo mal
Oh, déjame decirte
Frankie metió la mano en su bolso
Y sacó una larga .44
Ella disparó una, dos, tres veces
Y Johnny cayó al suelo de madera
Oh, él era un hombre, de acuerdo
Pero ella le disparó porque estaba haciendo mal
Pero lo último que le dijo fue
Frankie, sabes que te amo
¿Por qué, cariño, por qué hiciste eso?
Frankie, le estaba hablando de ti
Frankie, sabes que te amo
Frankie, sabes que te amo
Sí, sí, sí
Frankie, sabes muy bien que te amo
Frankie, siempre te amaré, nena
Frankie, sabes que no puedo vivir sin ti
Frankie, sabes que te amo
Soy tu hombre y sé que estaba haciendo mal
