Frank:
Now here's a story with quite a moral
And all you gals, you gotta pay some mind
When you find a guy
Shelley Winters:
[yeah?]
Frank:
Worth keeping, be satisfied
Make sure you treat him very kind..
'Cause a good guy
Shelley Winters:
[Ow!]
Frank:
Is hard to find
You could always get the other kind
Shelley Winters:
[But when you think that you got her tied, you'll find her]
Frank:
Messing around with another guy
Then you rave and you'll even start to crave
Man, you want to see her lying deep down in the grave
So if the guy's nice, you better take my advice
You better love him in the morning, kiss him every night
Ooo, give him plenty of loving, treat him right
Because a good man nowadays is hard to find
Shelley Winters:
[Buster, you gotta be kidding, you see this little guy?]
[The one with the feeble mind, he always been, he moving time.]
[One fine day he dug another chick, she took all his loot and cut him quick.]
[Now, he's calling me back on the phone, he says]
Frank:
Baby, don't you go away, I'm coming right home
Shelley Winters:
[But if you wanna come back, come on in our little grass shack,]
[You gotta love me in the morning, kiss me in the night,]
[You give me lots of loving, treat me right,]
['Cause a good gal nowadays is hard to find.]
Frank:
Well, I went back, but I told this doll
I said: Woman, then is then, but now is now
If you want me to stay, there's just one but (what?)
Keep a smile on your face, and keep your big mouth shut
Well, we're back together, and everything is fine
Shelley Winters:
[I'm a-running the show, jack, you better stay in line.]
[Now you know what to do when the day is through.]
Frank:
I better love you in the AM
Shelley Winters:
[that's right!]
Frank:
Kiss you in the PM
Shelley Winters:
[what else?]
Frank:
Give plenty of loving
Shelley Winters:[show me!]
Frank:
With all my mind
Shelley Winters:
[good boy!]
[For a good gal nowadays are hard to find.. Leroy!] Yes, ma'am!
[I am just .. you better keep those cotton picking hands off all those other dames or I'll]
Frank:
Or you'll what?
Shelley Winters:
[I'll fly over there and turn off all your lights.]
Frank:
Uh yeah, like I was saying, a good
Shelley Winters:
[Oh man, yes!]
