Written by E. Johnson   Recorded by Hank Snow      A good gal is hard to find   You always get the other kind   And when you think you've got the best in the land   You look around and see her flirtin' with some other man   And then you rave and then you crave   To see her lyin' in her grave   So guys be wise, take my good advice    Hug her every mornin', kiss her every night   Give her lots of lovin', man, and treat her right   'Cause a good girl, nowadays, is hard to find      A good gal is hard to find   You always get the other kind   And when you think you've got the best in the land   You look around and see her flirtin' with some other man   And then you rave and then you crave   To see her lyin' deep in her grave   So guys be wise, take my good advice    Hug her every mornin', kiss her every night   Give her lots of lovin', man, and treat her right   'Cause a good girl, nowadays, is hard to find   A good gal, nowadays, is hard to find
