Framed

I was walkin' down the street, minding my own affairCaminaba por la calle, ocupándome de mis asuntos

When two policemen grabbed me unawareCuando dos policías me agarraron desprevenido

They said, is your name Henry, I says why sure?Me dijeron, ¿tu nombre es Henry?, yo dije, claro que sí

He says you're the boy I been lookin' forÉl dice, eres el chico que he estado buscando

I was framed, framed, I was blamedFui enmarcado, enmarcado, fui culpado

Framed, well I never do nothingEnmarcado, nunca hago nada

But I always get blamed, oh framedPero siempre me culpan, oh enmarcado

They took me to the line where those bright lights shineMe llevaron a la fila donde brillan esas luces brillantes

There was ten poor souls like me in that lineHabía diez almas pobres como yo en esa fila

I knew I was a victim of someone's evil planSabía que era víctima de un plan malvado de alguien

When a stool-pigeon walked in an' saysCuando un soplón entró y dijo

That's your man!¡Ese es tu hombre!

I was framed, framed, I was blamedFui enmarcado, enmarcado, fui culpado

Oh, framed, framed, framedOh, enmarcado, enmarcado, enmarcado

Well, I never do nothingNunca hago nada

But I always get blamedPero siempre me culpan

Well, the prosecuting attorney started a-prosecuting meBueno, el fiscal comenzó a procesarme

Man, that cat didn't give me the one, but the third degreeHombre, ese gato no me dio solo uno, sino el tercer grado

He says, where were you in the night of July 1953Él dice, ¿dónde estabas en la noche de julio de 1953?

Man, I was just home, just a tweedle-ee-deeHombre, estaba en casa, solo tarareando

I was framed, oh framed, I was blamedFui enmarcado, oh enmarcado, fui culpado

Oh, framed, framed, framedOh, enmarcado, enmarcado, enmarcado

Well, I never do nothingNunca hago nada

But I always get framed, oh framedPero siempre me enmarcan, oh enmarcado
