Do It Again is a song by American jazz-rock group Steely Dan, which was released as a single from their debut 1972 album Can't Buy A Thrill. The single version differed from the album version, shortening the intro, outro and two instrumental sections of the song.

Released in 1972, the song debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 on November 18, 1972 and reached #6 on the US charts in 1973.

On the 1972 release, the song was credited as "Trad" (for traditional), although it was probably written by the band's leaders, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen (who most likely enjoyed the chic joke concerning the songwriting credits).

The song was among the first in popular music to include an organ solo featuring a pitch-shifting technique. The tune also has a notable electric sitar solo by Denny Dias. It is also set to be featured in the upcoming video game, Guitar Hero World Tour.
