Verse
G C G
My name is Joel Roberts I work for the state
D
I'm a sergeant out of Perrineville barracks number eight
G C G
I always done an honest job as honest as I could
D G
I got a brother named Frankie and Frankie ain't no good
G C G
Now ever since we was young kids it's been the same come down
D
I get a call on the shortwave Frankie's in trouble downtown
G C G
Well if it was any other man, I'd put him straight away
D G
But when it's your brother sometimes you look the other way
[Chorus]
C G
Yeah me and Frankie laughin' and drinkin'
C G
Nothin' feels better than blood on blood
C G
Takin' turns dancin' with Maria as the band
D
Played "Night of the Johnstown Flood"
G C G
I catch him when he's strayin' like any brother would
D (or A7) G
Man turns his back on his family well he just ain't no good
[Verse]
G C G
Well Frankie went in the army back in 1965
G D
I got a farm deferment, settled down, took Maria for my wife
G C G
But them wheat prices kept on droppin' till it was like we were gettin' robbed
G C G
Frankie came home in `68, and me, I took this job
[Chorus]
C G
Yeah we're laughin' and drinkin'
C G
Nothin' feels better than blood on blood
C G
Takin' turns dancin' with Maria as the band
D
Played "Night of the Johnstown Flood"
G C G
I catch him when he's strayin' teach him how to walk that line
D G
Man turns his back on his family he ain't no friend of mine
[Verse]
G C G
Well the night was like any other, I got a call `bout quarter to nine
G D
There was trouble in a roadhouse out on the Michigan line
G C G
There was a kid lyin' on the floor lookin' bad bleedin' hard from his head
G D G
There was a girl cry'n' at a table and it was Frank, they said
G C G
Well I went out and I jumped in my car and I hit the lights
G D
Well I musta done one hundred and ten through Michigan county that night
G C G
It was out at the crossroads, down `round Willow bank
G D G
Seen a Buick with Ohio plates. Behind the wheel was Frank
G C G
Well I chased him through them county roads Till a sign said "Canadian border five miles from here"
G D G
I pulled over the side of the highway and watched his tail-lights disappear
[Chorus]
C G
Yeah me and Frankie laughin' and drinkin'
C G
Nothin' feels better than blood on blood
C G
Takin' turns dancin' with Maria as the band
D
Played "Night of the Johnstown Flood"
G C G
I catch him when he's strayin' like any brother would
D (or A7) G
Man turns his back on his family well he just ain't no good
