    Are you thinking of "The Breakup Song (They Don't Write 'Em Like That No More)" by the Greg Kihn band?

    Or perhaps it is by Boy Howdy. Jeffrey Steele was the frontman, and has a rock edge, and may have possibly re-recorded it. It was originally on the album "Born That Way" If you have myspace, this is the only place I could find it online, and it is mis-titled as "Hang on to Her Boy" at this link: MySpace.com - Boy Howdy - WEST PALM BEACH, Florida - Country - www.myspace.com/boyhowdy11

    They Don't Make Em' Like That Anymore (Lyrics):

    Hang on to her, boy
    With all your might
    She's got so much to give
    If you treat her right

    She's a classic
    Perfect in every way
    One of a kind
    Now that's what my Daddy would say

    And when I turned eighteen
    He smiled at me
    Walked outside
    And tossed me the keys

    And he said

    [CHORUS]
    Hang on to her, boy
    With all your might
    She's got so much to give
    If you treat her right
    In a world where
    Things are changing fast
    Ain't too many things
    That were made to last

    Hang on to her, boy
    They don't make 'em like that anymore

    She's a beauty
    The kind you don't see everyday
    Yeah, she's timeless
    Oh, that's what her Daddy would say

    And arm in arm
    As they walked down the aisle
    He gave me her hand
    And said with a smile

    Oh

    [repeat CHORUS]

    Hang on to her, boy
    They don't make 'em like that anymore

    And as the years go by
    We'll still be side by side
    'Cause there's a voice inside
    Reminding me to hang on

    [repeat CHORUS]

    Hang on to her, boy
    Take care of her, son
    Hang on to her, boy
    They don't make 'em like that anymore

    Oh, no
    They don't make 'em like that anymore
