It's cloudy out in pittsburgh
It's rainin in saigon
Snows 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 somebodys girl
And she gave all she had that one last time
Now theres a little girl asleep in the back room
Shes gonna have to tell about the meanness in this world
And how a good man is so hard to find
Well theres 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 got no time now for casanovas
Yeah those days are gone
She don't want that anymore, shes 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
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
