Changed my mind about wasting my time,
Spending money and drinking wine.

Do right by your woman, yeah, she’ll do right by you
Do right by your woman, she’ll do right by you

Well, you always gave me lovin’ though I treated you so bad
I’ve changed my mind, wasting my time
Spending money and drinking wine

Do right by your woman, she’ll do right by you
Do right by your woman, she’ll do right by you

Well, you always loved a loser, but it’s diff’rent from now on.
I’ve changed my plans, gonna be a better man,
I tell you so you’ll understand.

Do right by your woman, she’ll do right by you.
Do right by your woman, she’ll do right by you.

Do right by your woman, she’ll do right by you.
Do right by your woman, she’ll do right by you.

Do right by your woman, she’ll do right by you.
Do right by your woman, she’ll do right by you.
