Why Don't You Do Right Lyrics


It was back in 1922
You let other women make a fool of you
But it's now 1953
You're doing the same thing, don't do it to me
You had plenty of money back in '22
You let other women make a fool of you
Why don't you do right?
Like some other men do
Just get out of here and,
Get me some money too
You're sitting down wonderin' what it's all about
If you don't get no money they will throw you out
Why don't you do right,
Like some other men do
Just get out of here and,

Get me some money too
It was back in 1944
You kept on runnin' from door to door
Why don't you do right,
Like some other men do
Just get out of here and,
Get me some money too
Well I fell for you jivin' and I took you in
All you had to offer was a drink of gin
Why don't you do right,
Like some other me do
Just get out of here and,
Get me some money too
You aint got no money
Aint got no use for you
You aint got no money
Aint got no use for you
So get outta here and get me some money too
I got a man in the east
A man in the west
But I found out that gold is the best
Got no money, aint got no use for you
So get outta here and get me some money too
Why don't you do right
Why don't you do right
Why don't you do right
Come on and do right
Like some other
Like some other
Men doooo

Ella Jane Fitzgerald (April 25, 1917 in Newport News, VA – June 15, 1996), also known as Lady Ella (the First Lady of Song), was one of the most influential jazz singers of the 20th Century, the winner of thirteen Grammy Awards, the National Medal of Art presented by President Ronald Reagan and the Presidential Medal of Freedom presented by President George H. W. Bush. Gifted with a three-octave vocal range, she was noted for her purity of tone, near faultless phrasing and intonation, and a "horn-like" improvisational ability, particularly in her scat singing.
