A good man is hard to find,
Yes you always get the other kind
And when you think he's your regular pal,
You look for him and find
Him messsin' 'round some other gal
Then you'll rave, yes you crave,
You wanna see him dead, wanna kill him, and in his grave
Now if your man is nice,
Take my advice
Hug him in the morning,
Kiss him late at night,
Give him lots of loving,
And be sure to treat him right
'Cause a good man, now days is hard to find, have mercy

I said a good man, huh is hard to find,
Yes you always get the other kind
And when you think he's your regular pal,
You look for him and find
Him messsin' around some other gal
Then you'll rave, yes you crave,
You wanna see him dead and in his grave
Now if you can be nice,
Take my advice
Lemon in the morning,
Kiss him late at night,
Give him loads of loving,
And be sure to treat him right
'Cause a good man, now days is hard to find, how
I said, lay it on me now, talk to me, yeah hey, ho, have mercy
Yeah that's kind of man I want, a real man ho, 
Ho I hear you playin' it, lay it on me

Yes a good man, is so hard to find,
Ha you always get the other kind
And when you think he's your all and all
You look for him and find him in another chick's stall
Then you'll rave, yes you crave,
You wanna see him dead and in his grave
But if he won't be nice,
Take my advice
Hug him  in the morning,
Kiss him late at night,
And bop him over the head with a brick a few times,
And I'll bet he'll treat you right
And then      that man of yours won't be so hard to find
