Davis, Paul - Do Right Lyrics
I know that He
Gave His life for me
Set all our spirits free
So I wanna do right
Wanna do right
I never dreamed
I could be holding you
Well He's making my dreams come true
So I wanna do right
Wanna do right
I wanna do right
You've got to do right
Yes you've got to do right
But you've got to do right
And to be your guiding light
Listen to the people
I used to say
Love was just a game you play
Now I see it in a different way
So I wanna do right
I got to do right
I've got to do right
I never knew
I could be holding you
But He's making my dreams come true
So I wanna do right
Want to do right
I want to do right
You've got to do right
Yes you've got to do right
And to be your guiding light
But you've got do right
And to be your guiding light
Listen to the people
Well we just can't keep on livin' like we're livin'
We just can't keep on living like we're livin'
We just can't keep on pushin to the limit
We just can't keep on
Just can't keep on livin' like we're livin'
We Just can't keep on (living like we're livin)
We just can't keep on pushin to the limit
Just can't keep on
Just can't keep on
Just can't keep on
Livin' like we're livin'
Just can't keep on
Just can't
Just can't keep livin' like we're livin'
We just can't keep on
Just can't keep on pushin to the limit
We just can't
Don't you know we got to do right, do right ooh do right
Don't you know do right
And to be you're guiding light, ooh ooh
Yes you've got to do right
And He'll be your guiding light

I love the lyrics and his message, not the tended party.
I do not think the Artist meant for his song to be taken sooo politically.
What happened to the message he intended for people to understand?
All these events were happening after the Artist's demise.
🥀Beautiful Song🥀Paul Davis was so different but Incredible. He had a way with words and music like other's wished for. I've got this album and it's put up safe keeping. RIP Paul Davis🥀🕊🥀🎹🕊
Great song
Whatever happened to music like this? Loved his music!
Too great a singer/songwriter to ever forget...much treasured songs.
Beautiful song
Did Paul ever sing any more songs that sounded like Christian music.
Good song. Didn't know PAUL SANG THIS.
I love this song, and I loved him.
I always wanna do right. And this song is a great message to the people of what life can be if we only remember what Christ did for every man and women who ever lived. We can't just keep on living like we're living, we have to "do right"!
One of the most underrated singer-songwriters.
Miss this singer
curlygiraffeから!
Paul Davis
"Do Right"
#23, 1980.
Doesn't that speak volumes about where we were, and where we've come to? Sad, I miss those days!
I love this song... He hits or should hit everybody on the head when he says
"You got to do right" we need to bring our conscience back to start thinking before we act.

I love Paul Davis. His voice sounds stronger, richer and more pure singing of our sweet Lord. Rest in Paradise and thank you.
He was so cute ❤️
Man does this bring back memories. I was born again just a few months before this song came out. Loved it then and still do!
GREAT classic gem from 1980.
Great song and artist!!
This is a great video that you did .....What an awesome song too - I’m a 70s / 80s guy . Great times back then .
I remember thinking to myself in 1980 when this song was released how courageous a record it was to release for Paul Davis. And I was already a big fan of his then.
If only there were courageous Christian people in the music business today to provide a strong role model for upright Christian values.
I miss how much freer the radio was back in those days. The "regular" stations played all kinds of music and there seemed to be no strictly-adhered-to format. Back in 1974 our stations in NC played a very controversial song by Seals and Crofts "Unborn Child" which was an abortion protest song.
He wrote Such a real,Straight From the Heart meaningful music... and we're still touched by it today, what an Incredible Gift he had!
Da trilha Internacional da novela 'Plumas e Paetês' 1980, faixa 14, a melhor do disco, pra fechar com chave de ouro essa bela trilha (já postado no canal)
Amazing song
R.I.P. Paul Davis
great song by a great talent. RIP Paul Davis and thank you for sharing your gift
Wow, only 39,000 views. I would have thought more people would want to Do Right.
Thank you for putting together such a hard hitting video to accompany Paul's message in song.
it's amazing how revelant songs that you listen to back in your youth has meaning today. Some songs never get old. And Do Right is one of those songs for me.
Great song. He sold the Christianity in a very subtle way.
Awesome! It's a pretty catchy song. I'm a Christian as well!!
This song brings great memories of the 80's .👏👏👏💋
🙏🙏🙏
THATS PAUL DAVIS FOR GIVING YOUR TWO CENTS IM SURE JESUS TOOK NOTICE.I REMEMBER ON YOUR ALBUM WWAS WRITTEN FOR HE WHO HAS EARS TO HEAR .AND JESUS WAS REALLY SPEAKING TO ME AT THAT TIME TURNED MY WORLD UP SIDE DOWN .HE WAS AND IS REALLY FOR REAL.I HAVE BEEN TRIPPING EVERY SINCE. THANKS SOME PLANT SOME WATER BUT GOD GIVES THE INCREASE
Hate to sound like an old guy (51), but where did music like this go?
@Marshall Lancaster: It went into our hearts & minds. That's where today's music can't override what we hold dearly.
Whoever thought 1980 would be 40 years ago? I remember when it was the "talk of the town" NEW year & decade coming!
Marshall Lancaster amen!
go to karoke and sing it - we need to bring it back....gen x
A truly amazing singer song writer - very under-rated, huge fan and he did had a large following... charts did not show his true success and love from the public. RIP my brother, thanks for the message in this amazing song, it's need more than ever in 2019.
Campaign for Paul Davis to be inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
I'm may not be religious but I love this music he made, great song
Very goodnes.
RIP Paul . You and wonderful music live on.
Beautiful song!
Paul Davis Do Ringht The Best Music
Sand rip off cance.
What a great message in the song! What a GREAT video to go along with it! Thanks and RIP to Paul Davis. Will see you in Heaven!
great song, i dont like video...better of with his pictures only
RIP Paul Do Right
Paul Davis was so insightful and really .....very gifted......Great song.
This song is a great song. However, the politics in this video at the end of it is right-wing and sad. I don't believe Mr. Davis would have approved of this right-wing slant of this Video at all. Just sad.
Snowflake alert! If you don't like it don't watch it.
I think it tells the truth though of the evil going on. But our relationship with Jesus puts him first and his power can work in the world.
WAAAAA crybaby.
So you think Paul was a closet baby-killing fascist liberal? I don't think so.
I had the honor of meeting Paul in Nashville in 1987. I was nobody but he took the time to talk to me for about 15 minutes. What a warm, humble and friendly man! He spoke with a soft, down home southern accent but sang like this, Wow! Paul, I will go on enjoying listening to you sing as long as I live. RIP brother, until I see you again.
He is singing right now! HalleluYah!!! Soon we can spend alot of time talking with him!!!
I can see that about him. A sweet man.
Amen!!!
You are somebody. Jesus Christ made you and meant for you to live and be happy and at peace in Him. Lean on Jesus totally and trust Hell be there for you always
One of my absolute favorite songs. Paul Davis has so many of them.
Esse artista faleceu em abril de 2008 um dia após seu aniversário . Ouvia muito essa música na "ANTENA 1".
Simplesmente, excelente!!!!
Sempre ouvi suas músicas na Alpha e Antena 1, Cool Night pra mim é simplesmente perfeita...
@jpeste2006 Cry Just A Little também tocava na Antena 1
It's a very good song, but it is the vocal that is extraordinary. I wonder if anyone who cares about this knows an online publisher who could be talked into carrying the sheet music. What amazes me most is that it apparently failed to top the Gospel and Christian charts. It's not exactly Gospel, but he sure displays Gospel Singer powerful pipes!
Wonderful video
I had this song in the old 45 record. I knew he was singing about the Lord after the first few words.
I remember hearing this on the radio driving with my mother in the car I loved it!!!
I wish music was good like the 70s again
@Joe James 1980
@P Kranz 1980 was 1970-10. Lol.
I was 11 years old when I first heard this song.
Good song, and great video!
bella canción , como todas las de Paul Davis....una voz maravillosa e inolvidable 💕
Beautiful song
You did the video right. Kudos. Ease out and fade.
RIP.Paul Davis.. This was my favorite from him...Inspirational !!!!!! He crossed secular and Christian music barrier...Now he's with Jesus !!!!!!
paul davis 1948 meridian mississippi died 2008 in meridian, mississippi
