Frankie And Albert

They [C]vowed to love one another

Baby beneath those stars above
It was her ma[D]n  [C]
But he was doing her wron[G]g  [D]

To fetch herself a bucket of beer
The [C]bartender said Miss Frankie you know

Your lovin' man been here
It was your ma[D]n  [C]
But he was doing you wron[G]g  [D]

Well girl I can't tell you no lies
Your [C]husband left about an hour ago

With that Hussy named Nelly Bly
It was your ma[D]n  [C]
But he was doing you wron[G]g  [D]

She said now lordy what have I done
[C]I done give enough love to my man

He done took my love and run
It was my ma[D]n  [C]
But he was doing me wron[G]g  [D]

He said lordy don't you shoot
But [C]out from under that red kimono

The gun went rooty-toot-toot
She shot that ma[D]n  [C]
Because he was doing her wron[G]g  [D]

She said baby what have I done
[C]I done shot the only man I loved

With a Colt 44 gun
I shot my ma[D]n  [C]
Because he was doing me wron[G]g  [D]

He done clipped her at the trail
[C]He said now look here woman you done shot your man

Stick you in the county jail
Talkin' about your ma[D]n  [C]
But he was doing you wron[G]g  [D]
