The Frame
Lyrics And Chords By Brian Kelly (April 2026)
From The Album - West Of The Tracks (2026)
Verse 1
Lying In The Bed Of My Ford Truck Soberin’ Up Off The Highway
The Sheriff’s Boys Are Hunting Me Down To The West Of The Tracks
It Was My Gun They Claim That Shot Red Bobby Dee Down Dead
Can’t Prove I Didn’t So I’m Getting Out - No Turning Back
Verse 2
The Posse Wants Me Cos I Caught Them Gang Raping That Cheer Leader
Judge Weren’t Real Happy And Four Of ‘Em Ended In Jail
Since Then I’ve Been Careful Waitin’ To Be Jumped Or Something Pinned On Me
Never Figured On Murder Nor A Manhunt Hot On My Tail
Verse 3
The Last Time I Saw Bobby Dee Was Over At My Mary’s Place
Caught ‘Em With His Boots Off And Blue Jeans Down ‘Round His Knees
Heard His Jaw Crack Then The Thud Of His Head On The Hardwood Floors
Nearly Tripped On Her Undies Through Blind Anger In My Hurry To Leave
Verse 4
Could’ve Easily Shot Him With My Sawn-Off Right There In The Corner
But Grabbed A Bottle Of Bourbon From The Counter And Stormed Out The Door
Heard On The Radio They Found The Two Of Them Gunned Down Dead
So Now I’m Being Framed; Got To Get From These Hills To The Shore
Verse 5
So I’m Lying In The Bed Of My Truck Sobering Up Off The Highway
Gonna Make For The Ocean Down South From Vermillion Bay
Oh, Mary, I Thought We Would Go On Forever
Now I’d Be Hanged So I’ll Be Off Before The First Light Of Day
To A Life On The Run From The Law Cos Justice Don’t Pay
