One Good Man

Janis Joplin

Hon, 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!
Whoa 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 - 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
I said, everything - everything
Ah yeah. ¥Ç¥

As recorded at Columbia Studio E (New York City) on 24 June 1969 and first released on the vinyl album "I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama!" (track 3 side 1) Columbia 9913.
