Lyrics
1. I am looking for a good hearted man
One who will give me enough to eat
And keep me dressed up neat
He need not be a flash
Just have enough of cash
To keep us from going up in a smash
Just an ordinary everyday man
Who is a good hearted man
Chorus:
I want a man, a good big hearted man
One who will be a good boss and never treat me cross
One who will love me and hug and kiss me
Till I’m happy all the way thru’
And make my dreams come true
I don’t care if he is a professional man
A businessman, or a working man
So long as he is a good hearted man
A good hearted man
2. I know if I get a good hearted man
I will treat him oh so good and kind
So he will not feel blue
And I will stick to him whatever we go through
And we will be such a good happy pair
And some day there will be more than us two
Give me a good hearted man
