When Frankie and Albert got married
Oh lord, how they did love
Whatd they do? Swore to be true
True as the stars above
Now Albert's gone and he won't come home

Frankie went down to the barroom
To fill up her little beer can
She said, Mister Bartender, 
Have you seen my lovin' man
Albert's gone and he won't come home

Well, I don't want to cause you no trouble
But I ain't gonna tell you no lie
I saw your man about an hour ago
Makin time with Nancy Fry
Your Albert's gone and he won't come home

Frankie went down to the pawnshop
Bought a big Colt 44
Stuck it inside her kimono
And marched up to Miss Nancy's door
Cause Albert's gone and he won't come home

Well, Albert seen her comin'
Out the back door he did scoot
Frankie pulled out that revolver
And went rooty toot toot toot toot
Albert's gone and he won't come home

Roll me over Frankie
Roll me over slow
Roll me on my left side
Cause my right side hurts me so
Alberts gone and he won't come home

All of them rubber tired hearses
All of them rubber tired hacks
Took old Albert to the graveyard
But they failed to bring him back
Albert's gone and he won't come home

It was a hot day in the courthouse
They ran the big lectric fan
The judge said, Frankie, I'm letting you go
But don't shoot that gun again
Cause Albert's gone and he won't come home

When Frankie and Albert got married
Oh lord, how they did love
Whatd they do? Swore to be true
True as the stars above
Now Albert's gone and he won't come home
