George Jones - Ol' Frank Lyrics






She was just 17 but she was all woman
when Ol' Frank slipped the ring on her hand.
My God he was wealthy, owned half of the county,
but he'd never see 60 again.
After 10 years of Heaven and long nights of love
his ole heart couldn't keep up the pace.
But friends you can bet that he had no regrets.
Ol' Frank ran one Hell of a race.

She cried all the way to the chapel,
like she really cared for Ol' Frank.
She cried all the way to the grave where he lay.
Then she smiled all the way to the bank.

He had bought her big diamonds and long limousines
as she taught him what happiness meant.
Lord he spent a fortune on his prized possession.
And to him she was worth every cent.
Now Ol' Frank is gone and the whole town's still talkin'
They think what she did is a disgrace.
There are many who think that she killed poor Ol' Frank
but he died with a smile on his face.

She cried all the way to the grave where he lay.
Then she smiled all the way to the bank.
