Why Don't You Do Right?

You had plenty of money in 1922
But you let other women make a fool of you
Why don't you do right
Like some other men do?

Why don't you get out of here
Get me some money too

You're sittin down and wonderin what it's all about
If you ain't got no money, they're going to put you out
Why don't you do right
Like some other men do?

Why don't you get out of here
Get me some money too

Why don't you do right
Like some other men do?

I fell for your jive and I took you in
Now all you got to offer me's a fifth of gin
Why don't you do right
Like some other men do?

Why don't you get out of here and
Bring me some money too
