An aluminum alloy sheet for bottle cans superior in high-temperature properties and capable of preventing thermal deformation thereof in coating and heat treatment and securing can strength after the heat treatment. The aluminum alloy sheet has the following composition: Mn 0.7-1.5%, Mg 0.8-1.7%, Fe 0.1-0.7%, Si 0.05-0.5%, Cu 0.1-0.6%, with the remainder being Al and inevitable impurities, and has a crystal structure elongated in a rolling direction and with an aspect ratio of crystal grains of 3 or more as determined through an examination from above of a part located at the center in the through-thickness direction. In the sheet, the amount of solute Cu is 0.05-0.3%, which means the amount of Cu in a solution separated from a precipitate exceeding 0.2 m in particle size by the extracted residue method using hot phenol, and the amount of solute Mg is 0.75-1.6%, which means the amount of solute Mg separated from a precipitate exceeding 0.2 m in particle size by the extracted residue method using hot phenol. The aluminum alloy sheet can have improved high-temperature properties without impairing its formability.
