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 and 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' 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
