You Can't Keep A Good Man Down 1920

It's an old adage, but it's true
To mistreat a good man will never do
It's been said, time and again
He'll always win in the end
So, girls, take my advice
You better treat him nice

You can't keep a good man down
No matter how you try
Any time he gets in wrong
He'll find a way bye'n bye
No use tryin' to treat him rough
'Cause he ain't use to that caveman stuff
Kiss him for breakfast,
hug him for lunch
For dinner give him lots of lovin'
He's your honeybunch, 'cause
You can't keep a good man down

You can't keep a good man down
No matter how you try
Any time he gets in wrong
He'll find a way bye'n bye
No use tryin' to treat him rough
'Cause he ain't use to that caveman stuff
Kiss him for breakfast,
hug him for lunch
For dinner give him lots of lovin'
He's your honeybunch, 'cause
You can't keep a good man down

He may be down, but never out
I'll tell you right now,
he's a good old scout
He's always Johnny on the spot
What it takes to please, he's got
So, girls please bear in mind
And always treat him kind

You can't keep a good man down
No matter how you try
Any time he gets in wrong
He'll find a way bye'n bye
No use tryin' to treat him rough
'Cause he ain't use to that caveman stuff
Kiss him for breakfast,
hug him for lunch
For dinner give him lots of lovin'
He's your honeybunch, 'cause
You can't keep a good man down

You can't keep a good man down
No matter how you try
Any time he gets in wrong
He'll find a way bye'n bye
No use tryin' to treat him rough
'Cause he ain't use to that caveman stuff
Kiss him for breakfast,
hug him for lunch
For dinner give him lots of lovin'
He's your honeybunch, 'cause
You can't keep a good man down
