One Good Man

Joplin Janis

"Honey, I love to go to parties


And I like to have a good time,


But if it gets too pale after a while


Honey and I start looking to find


One good man.


Hmm, don't you know I've been searching,


Oh yes I have!


One good man,


Oh ain't much, honey ain't much,


It's only everything, whoa.





An' I don't want much outa life,


I never wanted a mansion in the South.


I just-a want to find someone sincere


Who'd treat me like he talks,


One good man.


Oh honey don't you know that I've been looking.


Oh, one good man


Ain't much, honey it ain't much,


Oh, it's only everything.


All right.





Some girls they want to collect their men,


They wear 'em like notches on a gun.


Oh honey, but I know better than that,


I know that a woman only needs one.


One good man, oh,


Oh baby don't you know I've been looking, hmm.


One good man,


It ain't much, no, no honey it ain't much,


Oh, it's only every little thing,


Just-a everything, everything


Ah yeah."
