My heart's sad and I am all forlorn,

my woman’s treatin’ me mean

And I regret the day that I was born,

and that gal of mine I've ever seen

Happiness, it never lasts a day,

my heart is almost breaking while I say

A good woman is hard to find,

you always get the other kind

Just when you think that she is your gal,

you look for her and find her fooling 'round some other pal

Then you rave, you even crave to see her laying in her

grave

So, if your woman is nice, take my advice,

and hug her in the morning, kiss her ev'ry night,

give her plenty lovin', treat her right

For a good woman nowadays is hard to find,

a good woman's hard to find
