Lyrics
Now, here's a story with quite a moral And all you gals, you betta pay some mind Because if you find a man worth keepin' Be satisfied, make sure to treat him kind Because a good man is hard to find You'll always get the other kind Just when you think that he's your pal You turn around and find him messing 'round some other gal

And then you rave You even crave To see him laying right in his grave So if your man is nice, take my advice Hug him in the morning Kiss him every night Give him plenty lovin' Treat him right Because a good man nowadays is hard to find

You know, girls, once I had a man of my own, yeah And since he's gone, boy, I really miss him You see, most girls have to kiss a man to hold them But me? Haha! I have to hold them to kiss them! Oh, he wasn't much on looks or culture and he had a funny hand As a matter of fact, he wasn't much of anything but at least he was a man And if he comes back to my little grass shack I'm gonna hug him in the morning Kiss him every night Give him plenty lovin' Treat him right Because a good man nowadays is hard to find

Yessiree girls, they see that opportunity knocks but once And when that once is gone, sister, it's gone forever So girls, if you get a man, there's just one "but" Keep a smile on your face and keep your big mouth shut (Hooray!) I've learned my lesson now and everything's fine And if he comes back I'll never, never step out of line Because I know what to do when the day is through Gonna hug him in the morning Kiss him every night Give him plenty lovin' Treat him right Because a good man nowadays is hard to find
