Transcription

Overview

"Francine" was the only single released from the Rio Grande Mud album and gave ZZ Top their first bona fide hit reaching number 69 on the Billboard charts.[5] ZZ Top co-wrote the song with Steve Perron and Kenny Cordray, but the band claimed sole writing credit, cutting the two collaborators out of royalties for years.[4]

Various official ZZ Top releases throughout the years, beginning in 1972, have used the alternative spelling "Francene", especially on the various single releases, both within and outside the United States.

The B-side of the single was a Spanish version of the song. It was later included on the box set Chrome, Smoke & BBQ.
