Leaving Home - Charlie Poole/Bertha Lee[00:00:00]
Frankie and Johnny were sweethearts;[00:00:15]
They had a quarrel one day [00:00:18]
Johnny vowed he'd leave her;[00:00:20]
He said he was going away [00:00:22]
Never coming home going away to roam [00:00:24]
Frankie she begged and she pleaded [00:00:30]
"My love Johnny please stay [00:00:32]
Now oh my honey I've done you wrong [00:00:34]
But please don't go away "[00:00:37]
Then Johnny sighed and Frankie cried [00:00:38]
Oh I'm going away I'm going to stay [00:00:44]
And never coming home[00:00:46]
Gonna miss me honey in the days to come [00:00:49]
When the winter winds begin to blow [00:00:51]
The ground is covered up[00:00:53]
And when you think of me [00:00:54]
Gonna wish me back your loving man [00:00:55]
You're gonna miss me honey in the day [00:00:59]
Days days to come [00:01:01]
Frankie done said to her Johnny [00:01:18]
"Say man your hour has come"[00:01:20]
Underneath her silk kimono she drew a forty-four gun[00:01:22]
These love affairs are hard to bear[00:01:26]
Johnny he fled down the stairway [00:01:32]
"My love Frankie don't shoot "[00:01:34]
Frankie just aimed with the forty-four[00:01:37]
Five times with a rooty-toot-toot [00:01:39]
As Johnny fell then Frankie yelled [00:01:41]
Oh I'm going away I'm going to stay [00:01:45]
And never coming home[00:01:48]
Gonna miss me honey [00:01:51]
In the days to come [00:01:52]
When the winter winds begin to blow [00:01:53]
The ground is covered up[00:01:55]
And when you think of me [00:01:55]
Gonna wish me back your loving man [00:01:57]
You're gonna miss me honey in the day [00:02:01]
Days days to come [00:02:03]
Send for your rubber-tired hearses [00:02:20]
Send for your rubber-tired hacks [00:02:22]
Carry little Johnny to the graveyard [00:02:24]
I've shot him in the back[00:02:26]
With a great big gun as he went to run[00:02:28]
Send for a thousand policemen [00:02:33]
Take me right away [00:02:36]
Lock me down in the dungeon[00:02:38]
Cell and throw the key away [00:02:40]
For Johnny's dead just 'cause he said[00:02:42]
Oh I'm going away I'm going to stay [00:02:47]
And never coming home[00:02:49]
Gonna miss me honey [00:02:52]
In the days to come [00:02:53]
When the winter winds begin to blow [00:02:55]
The ground is covered up[00:02:56]
And when you think of me gonna[00:02:57]
Wish me back your loving man [00:02:58]
You're gonna miss me honey[00:03:02]
In the day days days to come[00:03:03]
