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!
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 🙏🏼🌿💚
It is certainly true that America has talent. You won't find it on the TV show though, you find it here on RUclips 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.
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
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
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.”
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
Stagger Lee is another one... same basic story.. lots of variation on words that is what folk music is all about and the way I play it.. the song is different every time... mostly because I am still trying to figure out how to play the guitar

Ive lost track of how many times ive watched/listened to this.
Anyone else sent here by Clifton Hicks? He had nothing but great things to say about this young artist. I'm glad he did.
Lukas pool sent me,and I'm glad 👍

Love Clifton 👍
One could say the same about you Blaine. I know... touche, touche.
Absolutely beautiful. No big bands. Simply beautiful.
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 🙏🏼🌿💚
So beautiful, never get tired of listening to this
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#
I listen to this and feel the future will be just fine.
Nora, you are incredible. I love your sound. How were you not a star on Justified? You are incredible

I love all the things you do, but I especially like you soloing on the banjo. Awesome!
It sound so peaceful, you bring a lot of tenderness into my world.. Thank you and the sweetest little bird to sing together
Watching this now that sidetrack my engine is out… I can’t stop listening 🥺🥺
Frankie and Johnny were sweethearts, oh Lord how they did love. Swore they'd be true to each other, true as the stars above,
Beautifully done, Nora!

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
"Spend $100 dollars for an hour to sit with her close" -> "Spent $100 for Albert's suit of clothes."
Also last line isnt just a fine its justified.@@alexbrown7665
Nora, you’re so wonderful!

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!
Proud to be the hundredth like, Nora Brown is a Legend!
Nora and her generation are gonna save this messed-up world if anybody can.
I fear there aren’t enough Noras😢

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
maybe Ms Brown knows 🤔???
Peace ✌☮🕊Namaste
Stagger Lee is another one... same basic story.. lots of variation on words
that is what folk music is all about
and the way I play it.. the song is different every time... mostly because I am still trying to figure out how to play the guitar
Love this!
No images please musics only and poetry
