Frankie and Albert
Lyricist:John Hurt
Frankie and Albert were sweet hearts Lord how they could love Vowed to love one another Baby 'neath the stars above It was her man and he was doin' her wrong
Frankie went down to the bar room To get herself a bucket of beer Say hey to da' lone bartender Say hey has my lovely man been here? It was my man, an' he was doing me wrong
Bartender said 'Ms Frankie Honey I can't tell you no lie He left here about an hour ago With that hussie named Nelly Bly It was your man, he was doing you wrong'
Frankie, she cried, she cried, she cried Lord what have I done? I done give lovin' to this man He took my love and run It was my man, and he was doing me wrong
Albert saw Frankie comin', He say 'Oh Lord baby, don't you shoot Well you know, out from under that red kimono' The gun went rootie toot toot She shot that man 'cause he was doin' her wrong Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Boo hoo, boo hoo, boo hoo, boo hoo Frankie say baby what have I done? You know I shot the only man I loved a cold 41 It was my man an' he was doin' me wrong
Play it for a while
High Sheriff come clippety, clippety, clippety, clippety Clippety, clippety, clippety the trail I say, 'Look here Frankie I'm gon' tell ya' You done shot yo' man, I'm gon' hafta' put cha in da' county jail' Talkin' 'bout that man an' he was doin' her wrong
Frankie she laid in da' jail house Now ya' know there ain't no one to go her bail But 'cha know big Jim say honey 'I'm workin' on you, try to get you outta that jail' Tell about yo' man 'cause he was doin' you wrong
An' our story go on
Frankie an' Albert were sweethearts Lord how they could love Vowed to love one another Underneath the stars above Talkin' 'bout that man an' he was doin' her wrong
