Frankie And Johnny Lyrics - Tribute To Uncle Ray - Stevie Wonder

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 allright, 

Oh, but he was doing a-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 a-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 a-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 a-wrong
