Do Right (By Me)
Written By: Chuck Jones & Eris O'Brien
Some people play with passion
Some people play with fire
Always looking for the latest fashion and design
It makes life so complicated
Trying to keep your story straight
Slippin' up before you know love slips away
Seems like just a waste
I know we're livin' in a world of gray
But some things are black and white
What good are the words we say
If they don't ring true
Baby I do right by you, I do right by me
Anything in this life's worth havin'
You've gotta take it with faith and trust
And if I believe in any thing at all I believe in us
But it takes more than good intentions
I've been down that road before
This time I'm holding out for some thing more
I need now for sure
We're all livin' in a world of gray
But some things are black and white
What good are the words we say
If they don't ring true
Baby I do right by you, I do right by me
I know we're livin' in a world of gray
Some things are black and white
We'll never make it to the light of day
If we can't hold on in the dead of night
What good are the words we say
What use are they if they don't ring true
Baby I do right by you, I do right by me
I do right by you,
Do right by me
With a little passion
Do right by me
