To find a good woman, is like findin' a dime in a bed of sand.
To find a good woman, is like findin' a dime in a bed of sand.
Because some of these women, don't want no one man.

Men, love will make you drink and gamble, and stay out all night long.
Men, love will make you drink and gamble, and stay out all night long.
It will make you do things, really when you know its wrong.

Do it a long time boys, it you can't do it a long time, do it twice!  [spoken words, L. Johnson]

The days are lonely, and the nights is so blue.
The days are lonely, the nights seem so blue.
I would be so glad if I, had someone to tell my troubles to.
