Don't Do It Lyrics - Delbert Mcclinton

She comes sneakin' up thinkin' I'm sleepin', ya'll 

And I met her at the back door 

I handed her her suitcase, told her don't come back no more 

She turned as she was leavin', and she looked dead straight at me 

She said if you think I can't find me another man, honey, you must be crazy 

Do it 

You better leave while you can, honey, better get to it 

The place where you been stayin' has become the place you ain't 

And everything's in your suitcase except your wig, hat, powder and paint 

A friend of mine used to run one time with a gal named Lou 

There seemed to be no end, ya'll, to the evil she could do 

She took him for everything he had, and then she called him a clown 

They put that boy in Huntsville 'cause he shot that woman down 

Do it 

Got a real good idea, honey, better get to it 

I thought you was an angel, you're a Jezebel instead 

I don't want no cheatin', lyin' woman sleepin' in my bed 

She was 19 years old, ya'll, her mother's only child 

And she did not have no shame 

Took my money, hard earned money 

And spent it all on five other men 

So do it 

Better leave while you can honey, better get to it 

I thought you was an angel, but you a Jezebel instead 

I don't want no cheatin', lyin' woman, sleepin' in my bed
