Here we have the wonderful Bluesy-Jazz tune, "Why Don't You Do Right?",  written by Joseph, "Kansas Joe", McCoy, in 1936. It was  later known as, "Why Doncha Do Right",   To those who think their generation is the first of, "420", this song from way back in the day was also (originally) recorded as, "Weed Smoker's Dream", so there ya go.
From Wiki (if you care to trust Wiki?):  
"In 1936, the Harlem Hamfats recorded "The Weed Smoker's Dream". Band member McCoy later rewrote the song, refining the composition and lyrics.
 The new tune, titled "Why Don't You Do Right?", was recorded by Lil Green in 1941, with guitar by William "Big Bill" Broonzy. The recording was an early jazz and blues hit.[2]
The song has its roots in blues music and originally dealt with a marijuana smoker reminiscing about lost financial opportunities. As it was rewritten, it takes on the perspective of the female partner, who chastises her man for his irresponsible ways."
Believe me, when I was married, I could totally relate (that was my rant, and for the same reasons!)
The song became a jazz standard and was recorded, in 1942, by Benny Goodman's band and featured Peggy Lee.  That's probably the most popular version and the one you'd know.
My uploads are generally comprised of video I have shot, in Austin;  Rosedale Neighborhood, Hyde Park, and particularly, up at Central Market Park pond, and roof of the parking garage...
It is wild in Austin;  really wild, I tell you!

I shot most of this at LIVE in the City UMC, and the end (which cam first) at Central Market Events ATX (Central Market Music).  The first is a bit more dramatic, slower tempo, and the ending is a bit faster,.  I don't mind the differences.  Both sound terrific!
