Framed

I was walkin' down the street Mindin' my own affairs
And two policemen grabbed me on the way
They said: Is your name Henry?, I said: Why sure
They said: You're the boy we've been looking for

Framed
I was framed
I never do anything wrong
But i always get blamed
Framed

They put me in the lineup
And let that bright light shine
Have a ten-pull soul like me Standing in that line
I knew I was a victim Of someone's evil plan
When a stool pigeon walked in And said "That's the man"

Framed
I was framed
I never did anything wrong,
But I've always been blamed
Framed

The prosecuting attorney Started prosecuting me
Man that cat gave me the third degree
He said: Where were you the night of June 29?
I said: I was home in bed
He said: Judge this man is lying

Framed
I was framed
I never do anything wrong
But I always get blamed
Framed

I denied the charges Of robbing the liquor store
Denied the charges Of carrying a 44
Denied the charges Of vagrancy too
But when the judge came down
Poured whiskey on my head
Turned around to the jury and said: Convict this man he is drunk
What could I do?

Framed
I was framed
I never did anything wrong
But I always get blamed

He was framed
I was framed

He was framed
I was framed

He was afraid
I got afraid

Framed
Always framed
