Aretha's Voice
I won't ever march in lock-step
I won't ever do that
Others have fought
To make me proud
I've heard all those voices
Shouting to me: "Don't wait"
"For them to whisper to you one day"
"What to say or even what to do"
There is response inside the words
That we mutter, that we mutter
Oh, oh, give me a little respect1
Oh, oh, I know where to go
Oh, oh, give me a little respect
I can hear Aretha's voice
Oh, oh, give me a little respect
Oh, oh, I know where to go
Oh, oh, give me a little respect
I can hear Aretha's voice
I won't fold my arms
I won't ever do that
In my blood, there are
Power and inspiration
I've enchanted the diva
I've heard all those voices
I know where to search
For a little ambition
There is response inside the words
That we mutter, that we mutter
Oh, oh, give me a little respect
Oh, oh, I know where to go
Oh, oh, give me a little respect
I can hear Aretha's voice
Oh, oh, give me a little respect
Oh, oh, I know where to go
Oh, oh, give me a little respect
I can hear Aretha's voice
I can hear Aretha's voice
I can hear Aretha's voice
I can hear Aretha's voice
I can hear Aretha's voice
Oh, oh, give me a little respect
Oh, oh, I know where to go
Oh, oh, give me a little respect
I can hear Aretha's voice
