Do Right Bayou |
| When the man in the hobnail boots asked me what war was going on I didn’t have the heart to tell him that peace had just begun |
| He didn’t believe he said do or die |
| I couldn’t deceive and so I said goodbye |
| Got a friend with a silver lady shows me many ways to laugh |
| It’s a one-way love affair but she shines in his photographs |
| He don’t like a crowd but don’t get him wrong |
| He does his thinking aloud he makes it up as he goes along |
| I want to do right by you but you mustn’t do wrong by me Sitting in a lonely room with a friend with lots to tell |
| He doesn’t ask me for advice but then I’ve got nothing to sell |
| We trade in a joke we’ve got nothing to hide |
| We’re just simple folk it makes me feel good inside |
| I want to do right by you but you mustn’t do wrong by me So when we’re having our last meal and I ask you for a light |
| Don’t get me wrong because the last thing that I want is for us to fight |
| So get back to school and I’ll do the same |
| But don’t play the fool and we’ll both win this game |
| I want to do right by you but you mustn’t do wrong by me |
