Yoùre Gonna Miss Me (Frankie & Johnny) - The Kingston Trio

Frankie and Johnnie were sweet hearts.

They had a quarrel one day.

Johnny vowed he would leave her.

He said he was going away.

Never coming home.

Goin' away to roam.

«My love, Johnny, please stay.

Now, oh, my honey, I’ve done you wrong but

please don’t go away.»

Then Johnny sighed while Frankie cried.

Chorus:

«Oh, I’m a-going away.

I’m a-goin' to stay.

Never coming home.

You’re gonna

miss me, honey, in the days to come

When the winter winds begin to blow, the ground is covered up And when you think of the way, you’re gonna wish me back, your lovin' man,

You’re gonna miss me, honey, in the day they say’s to come.»

Frankie done said to her Johnny, «Now man your hour done come.»"

Cause from behind her kimono she drew her forty-four gun.

«These love affairs are hard to bear!»

Johnny, he fled down the stairway.

«My love, Frankie, don’t shoot!

«Frankie done aimed the forty-four

While the town went rooty-toot-toot.

As Johnny fell, then Frankie yelled,

(Chorus)

«Send for your rubber tired hearses.

Send for your rubber tired hacks.

Carry old Johnny to the graveyard, I’ve shot him in the back

With a great big gun as the preacher begun.

Send for some policeman to take me right away.

Lock me down in the dungeon cell

and throw the key away.

My Johnny’s dead because he said.

(Chorus)
