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 here wondering what it's all about
you aint' 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
Fell for your jivin' and I took you in
now all you've got to offer me is adrink 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
