Why Don't You Do Right by Peggy Lee & Benny Goodman
Performed by
Peggy Lee & Benny GoodmanWhy Don’t You Do Right Lyrics
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 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' now 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 is 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
