Frankie And Albert

Frankie was a good girl, everybody know,

she paid one hundred dollars for Albert's suit of clothes

He's her man, and he did her wrong

"Ain't gonna tell you no story, Frankie, I ain't gonna

tell you no lie"

Says, "Albert a-passed about a hour ago, with a girl you

call Alice Frye

He's your man, and he's doin' you wrong

Frankie went down to the corner saloon, she didn't go to

be gone long

She peeked through keyhole in the door, spied Albert in

Alice's arm

He's her man, and he did her wrong

Frankie shot Albert, she shot him three or four times,

says, "Stand back, I'm smokin' my gun, let me see is

Albert dyin'

He's my man, and he did me wrong"

Frankie and the judge walked outta the stand, and walked

out side by side

The judge says, "Frankie, you're gonna be justified,

killin' a man, and he did you wrong"
