Why Don’t You Do Right? Songtext
von Natalie Cole

You had plenty money, 1922
You let other people make a fool of you
Why don′t you do right, like some other men do?
You're 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 had prepared years ago
You wouldn't be wanderin′ now from door to door
Why don't you do right, like some other men do?


Get outta here and get me some money too
You′re 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, do, do right, like some other men do?
When 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, 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
Do-wee, do right by me
