lyrics

Frankie & Johnny II

Wake me up sweetly with the early morning sun
Honey, remember me,
When we’re through and done
And I’ll carry our memories in this little coffee can
You’re my man but I’ll spread you around

Don’t pack your bags
There’s no time to say goodbye
Let’s get up and go, don’t look back if you’re wise
And we’ll drive ‘til all we can see is desert sand
You’re my man but I’ll spread you around

And when Johnny realized this road trip
Was his last trip he knew he had let his secret slip
As she pulled her gun out from her slip
Frankie kissed her Johnny’s lying lips
Before she let that pistol rip

Go to sleep now, honey,
Like the evening sun goes down
And I’ll pass along your memory
To every girl in every town
If you couldn’t be true to me
Then you shoulda up and run
It was fun but I’ll spread you around
