I was walkin down the street,mindin my own affair
When two policemen grabbed me, unaware
He says ´Is your name Henry?´ I says´Why sure´
He says ´You the boy I´m lookin´ for´

I was framed,framed,I was blamed,framed
Well,I never knew nothin,but I always get framed
Oh,framed

They took him in the line up and let those bright lights shine
There was ten poor souls like me in that line
I knew I was a victim of someones evil plan
When a stool pidgeon walked in and says´ That´s your man´

I was framed,framed,I was blamed oh,framed,framed,framed
Well, I never knew nothin but I always get framed

Well, the prosecutor turned and started a prosecutin´ me
Man,that cat didn´t give me the one,but the third degree
He says´Where were you on the night of July 1953?´
´Man I was just home just a tweedle-a-dee´

I was framed oh framed,I was blamed oh,framed,framed,framed well,
I never knew nothin,but I always get framed
Oh framed,oh framed........
