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 give 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 gvie 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 give me some money too
