Why Don't You Do Right?

You had plenty money in 1922,
But you let all the 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 to!

You're sittin' down wonderin' what it's all about
If you ain't got no money, they going to 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
