Swore that I was living free
Boy, you couldn't talk to me
And the pride that kept me

Didn't know no company

Early morning subway train

Feeling lost and runnin' late
Well he held the car
He gave his seat to me


And I can't find nothin'
Feels so fine as lovin' a good hearted man

Oh he can sooth me, free me
Oh I'm going to marry that good hearted man


I told him that he better go
'Cause I was crazy and impossible
That my love was broken

My dreams had run all wild

Patient as the easy rain

Oh he never turned away
Callin' "Hey sweet woman
You know you're not a child"


And I can't find nothin'
Feels so fine as lovin' a good hearted man

Oh he can sooth me, free me
Oh I'm gonna marry that good hearted man


Good hearted man, now the night makes sense
Because your tenderness, it's shelter in me
So trading in that hard headed kid for a woman I can give to him

And it ain't easy but I'm gonna do the best I can for that good hearted man

You know there just aint nothin'

Feels so fine as lovin' a good hearted man
Oh he can sooth me, free me
Oh I'm gonna marry that good hearted man


Oh and I'm grateful, grateful
Got to say thank you to a good hearted man
