Artist/Band: Jerry Reed
Lyrics for Song: Framed
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Jerry Reed



I was walkin' down the street, minding my own affair


When two policemen grabbed me unaware


They said, is your name Henry, I says why sure?


He says you're the boy I been lookin' for


I was framed, framed, I was blamed


Framed, well I never do nothing


But I always get blamed, oh framed


They took me to the line where 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 an' says


Thats your man!


I was framed, framed, I was blamed


Oh, framed, framed, framed


Well, I never do nothing


But I always get blamed





Well, the prosecuting attorney started a-prosecuting me


Man, that cat didn't give me the one, but the third degree


He says, where were you in the night of July 1953


Man, I was just home, just a tweedle-ee-dee


I was framed, oh framed, I was blamed


Oh, framed, framed, framed


Well, I never do nothing


But I always get framed, oh framed


Oh framed


Framed
