Why Don't You Do Right



You had plenty money, 1922 

You let other women make a fool of you 

Why don't you do right, like some other men do? 

Get out of here and get me some money too 



You're sittin' down and wonderin' what it's all about 

You ain't got no money, they will put you out 

Why don't you do right, like some other men do? 

Get out of here and get me some money too 



If you had prepared twenty years ago 

You wouldn't be a-wanderin' from door to door 

Why don't you do right, like some other men do? 

Get out of here and get me some money too 



I fell for your jivin' and I took you in 

Now all you got to offer me's a drink of gin 

Why don't you do right, like some other men do? 

Get out of here and get me some money too 

Why don't you do right, like some other men do? 

Like some other men do
