Belle of 14th Street

And a good man is hard to find
You always get the other kind
Just when you think that he is your pal
You look for him and find him

Fooling 'round some other girl then you rave
You even pray to see him laying in his grave
So if your man is nice, take my advice

And hug him in the morning, kiss him every night
Give him plenty lovin', treat him right
'Cause a good man nowadays is hard to find

You know, girls, as you play the game of love
You put your heart on the spin of the dice
And when the dealer turns up the Jack of Spades
Let the chips fall where they may, you pay the price

Yes, girls, but a woman's gotta keep in mind
Even if she's the queen of hearts, he may discard her
And though the next good man is mighty hard to find
Remember, girls, a good woman is even harder

Some of these days, you'll miss me, honey
Some of these days, you're gonna feel so lonely
You'll miss my huggin', you'll miss my kissin'
You'll miss me, honey, when you go away

I feel so lonely for you only
And you know, honey, that you had your way
So when you leave me, you know it will grieve me
You'll miss your red hot mama some of these days

You'll miss my huggin' in the morning, kissin' at night
You're never gonna find no other girl who can treat you so right
You'll miss your mama, papa, some of these days
