It was a hot and steamy night
Then Frankie pulled his gun in sight
He said, now, Susie, don't you lie
Did Stevie catch you with another guy
Standing in the line of fire
It's gonna shoot ya
Standing in the line of fire
It's comin' to ya
It's goin' through ya
He told her that he had been true
And that he'd never made her blue, no
So don't go sayin' Steve is a liar
Girl, I've got my finger on a hair-trigger wire
Standing in the line of fire it's gonna shoot ya
Standing in the line of fire it's comin' to ya
It's goin' through ya
Bye, bye, bye Susie
So long, girl
The gunshot echoed through the town
Oh, Frankie threw his shotgun down
That roof had moonlight shinin' through
She said she'd never, never, never make him blue, yeah
Standing in the line of fire
It's gonna shoot ya
Standing in the line of fire
It's comin' to ya
Standing in the line of fire
It's gonna shoot ya
It's goin' through ya
Bye, bye, bye, Susie
So long
