Lookin' For A Good Man

It happened one evening.
It was not so long ago.
It happened one evening.
It was not so long ago.
I heard my baby walking.
He walked right out the door.

I just sit here crying.
Lawd, I've got nowhere to go.
I just sit here crying.
No, I've got nowhere to go.
When my baby left me
He took my heart and soul.

I keep going to the window.
Lawd, I'm just staring at the night.
I keep going to the window.
Lawd, I'm just staring at the night.
I keep looking for a good man,
One who is gonna treat me right.
