A Good Man Is Hard To Find Lyrics by Alberta Hunter

Amtrak Blues

0

A good man is hard to find
Yes, you always get the other kind
And when you think he's your regular pal
You look for him and find him messin' 'round some other gal
Then you'll rave
Yes, you'll crave
You'll wanna see him dead
Wanna kill him
And in his grave
Now if your man is nice
Take my advice
Hug him in the morning
Kiss him late at night
Give him lots of loving
And be sure to treat him right
'Cause a good man, nowadays, is hard to find
(Have mercy)
I said a good man is hard to find
Yes, you always get the other kind
And when you think he's your regular pal
You look for him and find him messin' round some other gal
Then you'll rave
Yes, you'll crave
You'll wanna see him dead
And in his grave
Now if you can be nice
Take my advice
Oh, bed him in the morning
Kiss him late at night
Give him loads of loving
And be sure to treat him right
'Cause a good man, nowadays, is hard to find
(I said, lay it on me)
[Horn solo]
(Now talk to me, have mercy)
(Yeah, that's the kind of man I want, a real man)
(I hear you playing, lay it on me)
Yes, a good man, so hard to find
Oh, you always get the other kind
And when you think he's your all in all
You look for him and find him in another chick's stall
Then you'll rave
Yes, you'll crave
You'll wanna see him dead
And in his grave
But if he won't be nice
Take my advice
Hug him in the morning
Kiss him late at night
And bop him over the head with a brick a few times
And I'll bet he will treat you right
And then from then on
That man of yours won't be so hard to find
