Why she don't if she doesn't?
I have repeatedly seen in English songs that in English songs they use the 3rd person and the negation don't instead of doesn't.
For example:
1) Song: She Don't Wanna Leave Me
2) A line from (another) song: She don't need no hands or no pants, do your dance

anonymous Please tell us the rule of "not correct" use of this rule It's used mostly in songs. It's an attempt to create a song that is essentially artless, as if it deals with people who are not very educated, even when the song is quite sophisticated. It can be seen as a bow to an anti-intellectual streak that runs through some branches of Western culture, and as such it is thought to appeal to the masses.

There is no rule. Songs don't have to be grammatically correct.
