Do Yourself a Favor Lyrics

If you see me walkin' down the street one day

Don't say nothin' to me

No no, nothin'

'Cause you did me wrong when I was doing bad

So bad, I didn't think I was gonna make it

Now I'm alone, feelin' free

Freer than the butterfly flyin' high now, yeah yeah, baby

I don't claim no riches or any miracles

But I'm doin' better on my own



So if you see me baby: walk on by now

Don't say nothin': walk on by now

Do yourself a favor: walk on by, baby

Don't say nothin': walk on by, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!



You didn't even try to understand

Just where I was comin' from, no no, baby (lord)

Instead of understanding, you gave me your demandings

And I couldn't stand it - uh uh, baby (look here)

Now it's much to late and there's no time for me to try

Not anymore - uh uh, baby (check it out mama)

Say, I don't feel no pain, it doesn't hurt inside

But I'm doin' better on my own, so



So if you see me baby: walk on by, lord

Don't say nothin': walk on by baby

Do yourself a favor: walk on by, now

Don't say nothin': walk on by, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!



Ain't no need to talk to me now, baby

You might as well just a, walk on by now

Do yourself a favor

You might as well pack your bags and get the hell on down the road, 'cause I'm doin' fine

Do yourself a favor

Girl, I've got to let you know

Do yourself a favor

I've got to keep my feet down on the ground, now

Do yourself a favor
