A Good Man Is Hard To Find (Pittsburgh) [Studio Outtake - 1982]
It's cloudy out in Pittsburgh
It's raining in Saigon
Snow's fallin' all across the Michigan line
Well, she sits by the light of her Christmas tree
With the radio softly on
Thinkin' how a good man is so hard to find
Well, once she had a fella
Once she was somebody's girl
And she gave all she had that one last time
Now there's a little girl asleep in the back room
She's gonna have to tell about the meanness in this world
And how a good man is so hard to find
Well, there's pictures on the table by her bed
Him in his dress greens and her in her wedding white
She remembers how the world was the day he left
And now how that world is dead
And a good man is so hard to find
She ain't got no time now for Casanovas
Yeah, those days are gone
She don't want that anymore, she's made up her mind
Just somebody to hold her
As the night gets on
When a good man is so hard to find
Well, she shuts off the TV
And without a word
And into bed she climbs
Well, she thinks how it was all so wasted
And how expendable their dreams all were
When a good man was so hard to find
Well, it's cloudy out in Pittsburgh
It's raining in Saigon
Snow's fallin' all across the Michigan line
Well, she sits by the light of her Christmas tree
With the radio softly on
Thinkin' how a good man is so hard to find
Well, once she had a fella
Once she was somebody's girl
And she gave all she had that one last time
Now there's a little girl asleep in the back room
She's gonna have to tell about the meanness in this world
And how a good man is so hard to find
Well, there's pictures on the table by her bed
Him in his dress greens and her in her wedding white
She remembers how the world was the day he left
And now how that world is dead
And a good man is so hard to find
She ain't got no time now for Casanovas
Yeah, those days are gone
She don't want that anymore, she's made up her mind
Just somebody to hold her
As the night gets on
When a good man is so hard to find
Well, she shuts off the TV
And without a word
And into bed she climbs
Well, she thinks how it was all so wasted
And how expendable their dreams all were
When a good man was so hard to find
Well, it's cloudy out in Pittsburgh
