auxiliary verbs - She don't know that she's a lucky girl



Here's from an old song (1963) "She's A Fool" by Lesley Gore.



She don't know that she's a lucky girl



Here's another example, "Silence is Golden" (1964) by The Tremeloes
[YouTube link]



Oh, don't it hurt deep inside to see someone do something to her.




I wonder how common it is to say "She don't" or "don't it".
Do native English speakers often use these?


By the way, Lesley Gore is American, and the Tremeloes is British.
