Words that rhyme with Fro
As a one-syllable word, fro sits on the open /ษ/ and doesn't close on a consonant at all. It's an unremarkable word until the verse asks it to do something. Type rhymes for fro into any dictionary and the answer is roughly the same: the picked top sets below tell most of the story: the perfect-rhyme pool is generous, the family-rhyme bucket is bare, and the assonance pool is the one that won't run out.

Why fro rhymes the way it does
Fro is one-syllable, its rhyme-relevant vowel sitting on the short /ษ/, then it doesn't close on a consonant at all. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 98 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 727, assonance 2,356, and consonance 0. That's a deep perfect column. The song can ride strict rhymes from end to end, only sliding into assonance when the line needs to surprise. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Fro rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
