Il testo della Framed

Canned Heat

Well i was walkin' down the street
Mindin' my own affairs
When two policemen come up from behind
And grab me unawares

They said "you big bad burton cummings?"
I said "why sure!"
They said "you're the cat we been lookin' for!"
Well, i was framed.
Framed, framed, framed i was blamed
Framed, framed, framed
Well i never do nothin'
But i always get framed
Well they took me to the lineup
And let those bright lights shine
There were 6 poor souls like me
Standin' up there in that line
The judge got a witness
And got her way up on the witness stand
A woman jump up, start screamin'
"that's your man!"

I was framed.
Framed, framed, framed i was blamed
Framed, framed, framed
Well i never do nothin'
But i always get framed
Well the prosecutin' attorney started prosecutin' me
Man, i mean that cat let loose and gave me the third degree
He says "where were you on the night of july 16th, 1963?"
I said "i was cruisin'... just my sweetie and me..."
I was framed.
Framed, framed, framed i was blamed
Framed, framed, framed
Well i never do nothin'
But i always get framed
I get framed
I get set up
With circumstantial evidence
Innocent bystander, stand by me
I'm gon' need you
