Frankie and Johnnie Blues
EDITOR’S NOTE: The following stanzas are part of the song: “Frankie and Johnnie Blues.” The poem is too long to be published in the regular issue of the Whiz Bang, but it will be reproduced IN FULL in the Winter Annual of Captain Billy’s Whiz Bang, Pedigreed Follies of 1921-1922.
Frankie went down to the corner,
To buy herself some near beer,
Says to the handsome bartender,
Has my loving man been here?
He is my man
But he is doing me wrong.
