Why Don't You Do Right?

You have plenty money, 1922

You let other people make a fool of you

Why don't you do right,

Like some other men do?

Sittin' down, wonderin' what it's all about

If you ain't got no money they will put you out

Why don't you do right,

Like some other men do?

Get outta here,

Get me some money too.

If you have repaired years ago,

You wouldn't be wondering out from door to door

Why don't you do oh oh right,

Like some other men do?

Get outta here,

And get me some money too.

Oh, yeah

You're sittin' down, wondering what it's all about

If you ain't got no money they will put you out.

Why don't you do, do, do right,

Like some other men do?

Well, I fell for your jivin' and I took you in,

And now all you got to offer me is a drink of gin.

Why don't you do right baby,

Like those other men do?

Get outta here,

And get me some money too.

I said, get outta here,

And get me some money too.

Be-do, Be-do, Be-diddle-ee, do, do, do, do, do, do, diddle-dee

Duh-wee, beh-do, beh-do, bah-bo (4x) beh-do wee.
