Do It Good
B.Withers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Do it good, do it good
Do it good, do it good
Do it good, do it good
If you want to kiss a funky beagle
Hitch a ride upon an eagle
Read a catalog from Spiegel
Go on and do it, do it, do it
Hey, do it, do it to it but do it good
If you read the album cover by now
You know that my name is what my name is
When I came in here to try and
Do this, something I've never done before
Mr jones, Booker T, said to me
Don't worry about it just do what you do
And do it good do it good, do it good
Do it good, do it good
Ah, fish was made for hookin'
And grit's was made for cookin'
And eyes were made for lookin'
Go on and do it, do it, do it
Go on and do it, do it, do it
Hey, do it, do it to it but do it good
Do it good, do it good
Do it good, do it good
Do it good, do it good
Do it good, do it good
Do it good, do it good
Do it good, do it good
Do it good, do it good
In B. Withers's song "Do It Good," the repetitive chorus emphasizes the importance of doing things well. It encourages listeners to put effort, skill, and passion into their actions in order to achieve success and satisfaction. By repeating the phrase "do it good" multiple times, the song creates a mantra-like effect that reinforces the message.
The verses of the song include playful and somewhat absurd imagery, suggesting that no matter what unusual or unconventional task one may undertake, they should still approach it with determination and give it their best. For example, the lyrics mention kissing a funky beagle, hitching a ride on an eagle, and reading a catalog from Spiegel (a retailer). These lines serve to illustrate that no matter how strange or challenging the task at hand may seem, one should still approach it with the intention of doing it well.
The song also references Booker T. Jones, a well-known musician and member of the band Booker T. & the M.G.'s. His advice to the singer, "Don't worry about it, just do what you do and do it good," is a reminder to focus on one's own capabilities and talents rather than getting overwhelmed by expectations or doubts. This advice encourages the singer and listeners to trust in their abilities and give their all to whatever they are doing.

I see the crystal raindrops fall
And the beauty of it all
Is when the sun comes shining through
To make those rainbows in my mind
When I think of you sometime
And I wanna spend some time with you
Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
Building castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I
We look for love, no time for tears
Wasted water's all that is
And it don't make no flowers grow
Good things might come to those who wait
Not for those who wait too late
We gotta go for all we know
Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
Building them castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I
I hear the crystal raindrops fall
On the window down the hall
And it becomes the morning dew
And darling when the morning comes
And I see the morning sun
I wanna be the one with you
Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
Building big castles way on high
Just the two of us
You and I
Just the two of us
(We can make it, just the two of us)
Let's get it together baby (yeah)
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
