Lyrics

Frankie, she was a good little girl Everybody knows Said she paid forty-one dollars For Albert, a suit of clothes That's my man He ain't a-treatin' me wrong Albert went down to the saloon He didn't stand in no fear Sittin' down, man, smokin' his big cigar Women's all buyin' their beer You is my man Now, ain't doin' me wrong Frankie went down to the saloon She called for a can of beer Whispered to the bartender There's my man, Albert, wantin' me here That's my man He ain't a-treatin' me wrong Says, Frankie asked the bartender Can of beer Whispered to the bartender There's my man, Albert, wantin' me here That's my man Well, ain't he treatin' me wrong The bartender told Frankie Ain't a-gonna tell you no lie He left here just a few minutes ago With a girl they call Alice Fly That's my man Now, ain't doin' me wrong Frankie broke down Alice Fly's home She didn't make no alarm That's where she found her man, Albert Layin' in Alice's arms You is my man Well, ain't doin' me wrong Albert told Frankie Told her once or twice If I ever catch you, myself a-checkin' I'm surely gonna take your life Treated me wrong Now he's dead and gone
