She said, I’ll forgive you frankie, She said, I’ll forgive you not, not For killin’ my lovin’ son johnny, He’s the only support that I’ve got, ’cause you shot my man and he was doin’ you wrong.
Well the last time I seen frankie She was a-sittin’ in a dungeon cell She would be there moanin’, herself With no one there to care She shot her man, a he’d been doin’ her wrong, so wrong

"The billiard sharp who any one catches, His doom's extremely hard - He's made to dwell In a dungeon cell On a spot that's always barred; And there he plays extravagant matches In fitless finger-stalls On a cloth untrue, With a twisted cue And elliptical billiard balls!"

Edit: Assume this entry is a discursive side-bar (in the same key) so eta's continuation runs true.

Well they all said Louise was not half bad It was written on the walls and window shades And how she'd act a little girl A deceiver, don't believe her, that's her trade Sometimes a bottle of perfume Flowers and maybe some lace Men brought Louise ten cent trinkets Their intentions were easily traced Yes and everybody knew at times she cried Ah but women like Louise well they get by

This desert rose Each of her veils, a secret promise This desert flower No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this
And as she turns This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams This fire burns I realise that nothing's as it seems
I dream of rain I dream of gardens in the desert sand

My heart have been broken And all my love's in vain Because the peoples always told me That a woman is the glory of a man.
If you whoop her when she needs it The judge will not let you explain Because he believes in justice And a woman is the glory of a man.
I rather be tired out on the desert or right out in the falling rain Than to lose my baby Because she is the glory of a man.

I can turn a gray sky blue. I can make it rain , whenever I want it to. Oh, I I can build a castle from a single grain of sand. I can make a ship sail, uh, on dry land.
But my life is incomplete and I'm so blue. 'Cause I can't get next to you.
I can't get next to you, babe. (Next to you) I can't get next to you. (I just can't get next you)

Come Sail Away
A gathering of angels appeared above my head They sang to me this song of hope, and this is what they said They said come sail away, come sail away Come sail away with me Come sail away, come sail away Come sail away with me
