(Ok, now, now, wait a minute, wait a minute!
Now, listen, let me tell you girls what you should know!
Yeah, listen, listen!
Your happiness is here to stay
Yeah, if you just listen to what I say!)

A good man is hard to find!
You always get the other kind!
Man, just when you think that he's your pal
You look around and find him messin' 'round some redhead gal

And, then you yell! Oh, yes! You rave!
You wanna see him dug into his grave!
So if your man is nice, take my advice!
Hug him in the morning!
Kiss him ev'ry night!
Give him lots o' lovin', baby, treat him right!
'Cause a good man, nowadays, hard to find!

(Yeah! Hard to find!)

(Instrumental solo)

(Uh, you're not gonna listen...
Yeah, you're gonna go and make the same mistake you always make!
And wind up in that same place you always wind up!
Yeah...)

(Yeah! Listen the rest of what I gotta say!)

(Well, I had a girl once, she was divine!
Yeah, she never once stepped on line!
One day, she run off with some rotten trombone-playin' cat!
He took her money then he left her flat!
Now, she call me back on the phone
Y'know what she says?

"Just come on over, baby! I'm all alone!"
But, if I'm goin' back to that grass shack
She's gotta hug me in the AM!
Kiss me in the PM!
Gimme lots o' lovin' with all her might!)

'Cause a good man, nowadays, is hard to find!
Yeah, hard to find!

(Oh, come on and join by yourself!)

(Instrumental solo)

(Yeah!... Oh...)
