1.Frankie was a good woman
 C          C7
Ev´rybody knows
       F                 F
She´d give the taylor a hundred dollar bill
   F7                       C
to make her man a suit of clothes
            G7     G7            C    C
He was her man,but he done her wrong


2.Frankie was a good woman
Ev´rybody knows
Every time she gave Albert a hundred dollar bill
He´d spend it on those parlour house whores
He was her man,but he done her wrong

3.Frankie went down to the bar-room
and called for a glass of gin
She asked the man called the bartender
´Has my cheatin´man been in?
He´s my man,I believe he´s doin´me wrong´

4.Says:´Frankie,I´ll tell you no story,
Good gal,I´ll tell you no lie,
I saw your man pass here an hour ago
with a girl called Alice Frey
He´s your man,I believe he´s doin´you wrong

5.Well,Frankie she went walkin
´Wasn´t gone for fun
Underneath her apron
Had Albert´s forty-one
Kill her man,´cause he done her wrong

6.Frankie she shot Albert
Fell down on his knees
Cried,Lordy,Lordy,policeman
Don´t let this woman kill me
I was her man,but I done her wrong

7.Well,they´re taking Albert to the graveyard
Went to lay him down
Frankie was a-screaming
With such a mournful sound
I killed my man ´cause he done me wrong
