Frankie Vs. God Lyrics

he got shot down, thrown around
they stoned him hard and kicked him out of town
but frankie was a good man

he lived life, he went to church
every now and then he'd meet a girl
frankie was a good man

he said why god do you string me along
cause i have done nothing wrong

frankie did not know
frankie did not know

his time was up
he'd never get back what he lost
he was a lonely guy in a lonely world
he'd never get back what they stole
he said why god
why do you string me along

he met his death in an alley by the hospital
but he'd rather die outside
he can watch the sunset
he can see the night sky

the reaper walked around the bend
looked at his watch it was a quarter 'til the end
he sat down next to frankie
almost feeling bad

he said i'm just doing my job
why did he string you along

frankie did not know
frankie did not know

his time was up
he'd never get back what he lost
he was a lonely guy in a lonely world
he'd never get back what they stole
he said why god
why do you string me along
