A Good Man Is Hard To Find 1918

My heart's sad and I am all forlorn,
my man's treating me mean,
I regret the day that I was born,
and that man of mine I've ever seen,
My happiness it never lasts a day,
my heart is almost breaking while I say:

A good man is hard to find,
you always get the other kind,
just when you think that he is your pal
you look for him and find him
fooling 'round some other gal,
then you rave, you even crave
to see him laying in his grave,
so if your man is nice
take my advice
and hug him in the morning
kiss him ev'ry night,
give him plenty lovin'
treat him right,
for a good man nowadays
is hard to find.

A good man is hard to find,
you always get the other kind,
just when you think that he is your pal
you look for him and find him
fooling 'round some other gal,
then you rave, you even crave
to see him laying in his grave,
so if your man is nice
take my advice
and hug him in the morning
kiss him ev'ry night,
give him plenty lovin'
treat him right,
for a good man nowadays
is hard to find.

Yesterday my heart from care was free,
I sang all thro' the day,
now the blues have overtaken me,
since my lovin' man has gone away,
I tried my best to treat him nice and kind,
but now these words are running through my mind:

A good man is hard to find,
you always get the other kind,
just when you think that he is your pal
you look for him and find him
fooling 'round some other gal,
then you rave, you even crave
to see him laying in his grave,
so if your man is nice
take my advice
and hug him in the morning
kiss him ev'ry night,
give him plenty lovin'
treat him right,
for a good man nowadays
is hard to find.

A good man is hard to find,

just when you think that he is your pal

to see him laying in his grave,
so if your man is nice
take my advice
and hug him in the morning
kiss him ev'ry night,
give him plenty lovin'
treat him right,
for a good man nowadays
is hard to find.
