Bonnie Raitt Picture
Bonnie Raitt, (born November 8, 1949) is an American blues/R&B singer, songwriter, and guitarist who was born in Burbank, California, the daughter of Broadway musical star John Raitt. Raitt began playing guitar at an early age, something not a lot of her high school girlfriends did. Later she would become famous for her bottleneck-style guitar playing. "I had played a little at school and at camp," she later recalled in a July 2002 interview. "My parents would drag me out to perform for my family, like all parents do, but it was a hobby—nothing more...I think people must wonder how a white girl like me became a blues guitarist.

Good Man Good Woman Lyrics

Bonnie Raitt

Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey
Midnight, I'm wound up tight
Slowly comin' down in the daytime
I been lyin' low from work, hangin over from the hurt from you babe
But I'm gonna suffer through the strain, till I get a better thing with you
Darlin, me and you.
So hard to see so far ahead
When I can't seem to drag myself out of bed
Gotta find me a good man, a good man, good man. Yeah
You better stop, think about what you're saying
I was seriously dedicated, in the game of playin'
You made ten thousand promises you couldn't keep
I forgave you when you lied, pleaded and weeped
Put up with your disrespect and neglect
What an experience, I'll never forget.
Till now, everything I did was wrong (I'm sorry, baby)
Today you're free, but we live alone.
Gotta find me a good woman...Good woman...Good woman...Yeah.
It was twelve o'clock in the midnight hour
I heard the door slam, and then the shower
When I got up, you were already gone
I slipped and fell, from the water you left on.
Gotta find a good woman
Gotta find a good man
Gotta find a goodwoman
Gotta find a good man
