Lyrics

Honey, I love to go to parties
And I like to have a good time
But if it gets too pale after a while
Honey and I start looking to find
One good man
Hmm, don't you know I've been searching
Oh yes I have!
One good man
Oh ain't much, honey ain't much
It's only everything, whoa

An' I don't want much outa life
I never wanted a mansion in the south
I just-a want to find someone sincere
Who'd treat me like he talks
One good man
Oh honey don't you know that I've been looking
Oh, one good man
Ain't much, honey it ain't much
Oh, it's only everything
All right

Some girls they want to collect their men
They wear 'em like notches on a gun
Oh honey, but I know better than that
I know that a woman only needs one
One good man, oh
Oh baby don't you know I've been looking, hmm
One good man
It ain't much, no, no honey it ain't much
Oh, it's only every little thing
Just-a everything, everything
Ah yeah
