Frankie Jean (That Trottin' Fool)

One time my papa had a horse

His name was Frankie Jean

Man that's the running'est horse the world I ever seen

And it just do me good to ride old Frankie Jean

And it do you good to sit and listen at him sometimes

When he's coming down that plank road

Almost making his feet talk

Man that's the singlest footing horse the world I ever seen

Something kind of like this：

Go on Frankie Jean go on

I had him out with me once and he got loose

I couldn't catch him to save my life

I called Frankie Jean and I called him

He didn't seem to pay me no mind

I went and told my papa

How would you do if you want to catch a horse

He said How did you do

I said I called mine called and called Frankie himJean

He didn't seem to pay me no attention

Said That's a horse you can't you didn't call him right

You must whistle when you want your horse to come to you

Something like this：

Then he come single footing to me

So I took him out again he got loose from me

I called him and called him

He didn't seem to pay me no attention

I thought about what papa said

You's a horse I must whistle for you something like this：

Then he comes single footing to me

I had him out on a race once

I had 5000 betting on Frankie Jean

Folks I wasn't scared at all

Cause I know he wasn't going to let me lose

'Fore he let me lose he'd run off all of his shoes

Something like this：

Go on Frankie Jean
