Transcriber: Awantor@aol.com I was walkin' down the street Mindin' my own affair When two police grabbed me Unaware They says, 'Your name, Henry?' I says, 'Why sho' He says, 'You the boy I been lookin' for' I was framed Framed, I was blamed Fra-a-amed Well, I never knew nothin' But I always get framed Oh, framed (short guitar riff) Spoken: They took him in the line up And let those bright lights shine There was ten poor souls Like me in that line I knew I was a victim Of someone's evil plan When a stool-pigeon walked in And says; (sings) 'That's your man!' I was framed Framed, I was blamed Oh, framed, framed, framed Well, I never knew nothin' But I always get framed (short guitar riff) Spoken: Well, the prosecuting attorney Stared-a prosecutin' me Man, that cat didn't give me the one But the, third degree He says, 'Where were you On the night, July 19, 1953?' 'Man, I was just home, just-a Tweedle-e-dee'. (sings) I was framed Oh, framed, I was blamed Oh, framed, framed, framed Well, I never knew nothin' But I always get framed Oh, framed Oh, framed. ~
