Question
I'm looking for the lyrics for a song which includes
"if you're gonna do me wrong tonight'.  Hope you can help!

Answer
Hello Christine,

The closest I can get to that is the Vern Gosdin song "If You're Gonna Do Me Wrong, Do It Right". It was also recorded by George Jones.

There's a closet full of dresses that I bought you
And here's the keys to the new car in the drive
And before you leave our room
Put on your best perfume
If you're gonna do me wrong, do it right

Oh, the next time the phone rings I won't answer
I don't want to be the fool I was tonight
I don't want to know the truth
I don't want to see the proof
If you're gonna do me wrong, Honey do it right

If you're gonna break my heart all to pieces
Just walk right out and leave me any day or tonight
Take off your wedding band
When he takes you by the hand
If you're gonna do me wrong, do it right

Take off your wedding band
When he takes you by the hand
If you're gonna do me wrong, do it right


Glad to be of help. Cheers........Mel.
