A Good Man Is Hard To Find-Bessie Smith |
| [00:18.040] |
My heart is sad and I'm all alone |
| [00:23.850] |
my man's treating me mean |
| [00:28.820] |
I regret the day that I was born |
| [00:34.630] |
And the man I ever seen |
| [00:40.250] |
My happiness is less today |
| [00:45.500] |
My heart is broke, that's why I say |
| [00:50.710] |
Lord, a good man is hard to find |
| [00:56.780] |
You always get another kind |
| [01:02.460] |
Just when you think that he's your pal |
| [01:08.840] |
You look and find him foolin' 'round some old gal |
| [01:14.270] |
Then you rave, you all crave |
| [01:19.900] |
You want to see him in his grave |
| [01:25.780] |
So if your man is nice, take my advice; |
| [01:32.330] |
Hug him in the morning, kiss him at night |
| [01:38.400] |
Give him plenty lovin'; treat your good man right |
| [01:43.660] |
Oh, a good man is so hard to find |
| [01:51.540] |
|
| [01:53.230] |
Oh, a good man is so hard to find |
| [02:00.730] |
We always get that roughed old kind |
| [02:06.420] |
Just when you think that he's your pal |
| [02:12.480] |
You like and find him hangin' 'round some old gal |
| [02:17.380] |
Then you rave, how you crave |
| [02:23.070] |
You wanna see him dead layin' in his grave |
| [02:28.910] |
So if your man is nice, take my advice |
| [02:35.720] |
Hug him in the morning, kiss him at night |
| [02:41.410] |
