How He Died
I've heard this tail since I was a child
How two great men fell and lost their lives
Beneath the riverbanks where lovers go to hide
Where Frankie & Keith Calloway died
The young men swore friendship for all times
But that was ´fore the war, for grand ma´ came to town
She was the sweetest thing, lead many men astray
Both Frankie & Keith Calloway
Riverbanks, where lovers go to hide
Riverbanks, you've taken two lives
Beneath the riverbanks where lovers go to hide
There's a little sank where the grass grows high
If you're ever going there, to hide out in the green
Better make sure you can't be seen
Cuz when the sun sank one night in 58
Grandma went to the riverbanks to meet with Calloway
When Frankie found out he shot his brother to the ground
Then he shot him self one time
Riverbanks, where lovers go to hide
Riverbanks, you've taken two lives
Riverbanks your reputation died
Riverbanks, can you hear the lonely wind sigh
