Frankie and Albert - Nora Brown 

I'm so glad I discovered you. Bedridden nowadays with bad health and a heart condition, but your music has become my new solace through this. Thank you and many blessings 🙏🏼🌿💚

Lovely to hear this on a sunny Sunday afternoon

Nora, this is so wonderful.

Nice again ,thanks for this kind of songs

Nora and her generation are gonna save this messed-up world if anybody can.

Anyone else sent here by Clifton Hicks? He had nothing but great things to say about this young artist. I'm glad he did.

Nora warms this old time musician's heart I am glad the younger crowd are saving the music I grew up with. May our banjos and fiddle's always ring clear!

Frankie and Albert: Frankie was a nice girl Everybody knows Spend $100 dollars for an hour to sit with her close Her was her man, but he done her wrong Oh, Frankie went down to the pool room Didn't go there for beer Said Mr. Bartender has my Albert been here? He was her man, but he done her wrong Well I ain't gonna tell no stories I ain't gonna tell no lies Albert was here an hour ago in the arms of Nellie Byde He was your man, but he done you wrong Fankie went a-walkin' didn't go for fun Oh, underneath her little red coat she had a '41 He was her man, but he done her wrong When Frankie made it to the house didn't make no alarm She looked through the window glass, saw Albert in Nellie's arms He was her man, but he done her wrong First time she shot him stumbled Second time she shot him he fell Oh, the third time she shot him he fell on his heel (???) He was her man, but he done her wrong Well, it's roll me over doctor, roll me nice and slow Oh, roll me on my left side, my right side hurts me so I was her man and I done her wrong Well Frankie and the judge went walkin' late one summer's night And the judge said to Frankie, you're gonna be just a-fine You killed your man, but he done you wrong

Beautiful song. I love it so much I needed to learn it. It took me a minute to figure out, but the tuning is GD#FA#D#

It sound so peaceful, you bring a lot of tenderness into my world.. Thank you and the sweetest little bird to sing together

On entends les merles wowwww

Lyrics from Ms. Brown's studio version: Frankie was a nice young girl, everybody knows Spent a hundred dollars for Albert’s suit of clothes He was her man, but he done her wrong Oh, Frankie went to the barroom, didn’t go there for a beer Said “Mister bartender, has my Albert been here?” He was her man, but he done her wrong “Now I ain’t gonna tell no stories, ain’t gonna tell no lies… Albert was here an hour ago with a girl called Nellie Bly He was your man, but he done you wrong” Oh, Frankie went out for a walk, didn’t go out for fun Underneath her little red coat, she had a .41 He was her man, but he done her wrong She came up to the house, didn’t make no sound Looked through the window glass, saw Albert in Nellie’s arms He was her man, but he done her wrong Oh, first time she shot him he staggard Second time she shot him he fell Third time she shot him, he fell on his heels He was her man, but he done her wrong Well, it’s roll me over doctor, roll me nice and slow Roll me on my left side, my right side hurts me so I was her man, but I done her wrong Frankie and the Judge went for a walk, late one summer’s night Judge said to Frankie, “You’re gonna be justified He was your man, but he done you wrong.”

Hi Nora, I'd like to discuss licensing this song for a video game I'm working on. I sent you an email. I hope you get back to me!

Nora, you are incredible. I love your sound. How were you not a star on Justified? You are incredible

It is certainly true that America has talent. You won't find it on the TV show though, you find it here on RU-vid with young artists like Nora. Keep it up my dear, keep America alive through this ancient music. You make us all feel pride in our heritage and hopeful for our future.

Beautifully done, Nora!

Ive lost track of how many times ive watched/listened to this.

Absolutely beautiful. No big bands. Simply beautiful.

Watching this now that sidetrack my engine is out… I can’t stop listening 🥺🥺

My god...this is beatifull mannn I am so glad I discover you..

Like it. Great talent, keep it up.👍💯

Nora, you’re so wonderful!

Frankie and Johnny were sweethearts, oh Lord how they did love. Swore they'd be true to each other, true as the stars above,

You are amazing. Sooo amazing.

Sending good vibes from Isle au Haut. Your voice warms my heart on this cold ❄️ winter day.

How did I discover you? Serendipity. Beautiful playing and voice.

❤️

The birds made great accompaniment to this hauntingly beautiful performance. Cheers from Louisiana! P[>

Wonderful video...the picking and the lyrics are first rate...Nora Brown rocks!

WOW,… this is gorgeous.

Wow Nora. Absolutely amazing. I love the last line changing to "You killed your man, but he done you wrong". Don't think that was in the album version if I'm not mistaken. Also, does anyone have a TAB for this? I would love to learn on guitar or banjo. I could figure it out myself, but it would likely be an imperfect version

Amazing, beautiful and talented.. wish my daughter would pick up an instrument. I hope you will inspire her. Love your style!!

what a beautiful rendition

Lovely! Wonder what it would sound like if you used a capo.

I love Clifton Hicks’ music.

So beautiful. Nora your a gift to us all.

Dig it...

This is amazing and beautiful.

Good job Nora. 🎶☮️🎶

Thank you so much.

Got nylon strings on your Gibson, there? Thanks.

original equipment... and new to me... shows to go ya.. despite rumors to the contrary, I don't know everything My mother's name was Brown... thanks cousin 😘 Frankie and Johnny were the words in the music compiled by the Lomax Brothers.. with variations I probably missed... or something.. it's more than likely the Lomax Brothers didn't know everything either

exquisite!!! thank you for making this evening tranquil!!!

You are truly a angel. Can’t wait to see what’s next!

Magical ✨

Man, that was hauntingly peaceful story of justifiable consequences. Beautiful sound.

Love it. Anyone know the tuning on this one?

Amazing!!

Want this tab bad.

Haunting, which is how a murder ballad should sound. Looks like 2 finger thumb lead to me!

Just perfect.

Bravo Nora ! Très beau. Je suis toujours impatient de t'écouter.

Looks like you're playing TFTL. Sounds the best of any clawhammer style.

As wonderful as always. How much do play a day on average?
