Do the Right Thing
Choosing Between Love and Temptation: Do the Right Thing by George Strait
Lyrics
Once you told me you were gonna love me
Once you assured me of your love commitment
That it was meant to be and there's no other way
Emphasizing that our love was destined with no alternative
Then came someone showed you more fun
However, someone else entered the picture, bringing more excitement
We've had a good run better think it over
We've had a good relationship, but it's time to reconsider
Do the right thing baby do the right thing
Advocating for making the morally right decision
Go with your heart and do the right thing
Encouraging following one's heart and doing what is morally correct
He's got a good line, shows you a good time
Referring to a new person who impresses with charm and excitement
Did he change your mind guess it's your move
Asking if this new person influenced your feelings, leaving the decision to you
I'll lose my pride I'd even step aside
Expressing willingness to let go of pride and step aside for your decision
Honey you really must decide who's best for you
Stressing the importance of your choice for the best outcome
Do the right thing baby do the right thing
Reiterating the importance of doing what is morally right in the situation
Go with your heart and do the right thing
Repeating the call to follow your heart and choose the morally right path
Do the right thing baby do the right thing
Emphasizing again the importance of making the right moral choice
Go with your heart and do the right thing
Reiterating the advice to follow your heart and do what is morally right
You might chose me or chose to lose me
Leaving the decision to choose between me and potential loss
Someday you'll see the good thing you had
Suggesting that the true value of what we had may become apparent in the future
Do the right thing baby do the right thing
Reaffirming the importance of doing the morally right thing
Go with your heart and do the right thing
Encouraging once again to follow your heart and choose the right moral path
Do the right thing baby do the right thing
Reiterating the importance of doing what is morally right in the situation
Go with your heart and do the right thing
Emphasizing again the advice to follow your heart and do what is morally right
Go with your heart and do the right thing
Final urging to follow your heart and make the morally right choice
