Leaving Home - Charlie Poole/Bertha Lee

Frankie and Johnny were sweethearts;

They had a quarrel one day

Johnny vowed he'd leave her;

He said he was going away

Never coming home going away to roam

Frankie she begged and she pleaded

"My love Johnny please stay

Now oh my honey I've done you wrong

But please don't go away"

Then Johnny sighed and Frankie cried

Oh I'm going away I'm going to stay

And never coming home

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 me

Gonna wish me back your loving man

You're gonna miss me honey in the day

Days days to come

Frankie done said to her Johnny

"Say man your hour has come"

Underneath her silk kimono she drew a forty-four gun

These love affairs are hard to bear

Johnny he fled down the stairway

"My love Frankie don't shoot"

Frankie just aimed with the forty-four

Five times with a rooty-toot-toot

As Johnny fell then Frankie yelled

Oh I'm going away I'm going to stay

And never coming home

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 me

Gonna wish me back your loving man

You're gonna miss me honey in the day

Days days to come

Send for your rubber-tired hearses

Send for your rubber-tired hacks

Carry little Johnny to the graveyard

I've shot him in the back

With a great big gun as he went to run

Send for a thousand policemen

Take me right away

Lock me down in the dungeon

Cell and throw the key away

For Johnny's dead just 'cause he said

Oh I'm going away I'm going to stay

And never coming home

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 me gonna

Wish me back your loving man

You're gonna miss me honey

In the day days days to come
