[Intro]
Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Anything you want done baby
I do it naturally
Cause I'm every woman (Every woman)
It's all in me
It's all in me
It's all in me
Yeah
(Woo, Pump up the groove, Pump up the groove)

[Chorus]
I'm every woman
It's all in me
Anything you want done baby
I do it naturally
I'm every woman
It's all in me

[Verse 1]
I can read your thoughts right now
Every one from A to Z
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa (oh) whoa (oh) whoa
I can cast a spell
See, but you can't tell
Mix a special groove
Put fire inside of you
Anytime you feel danger or fear
I will appear

[Chorus]
I'm every woman
It's all in me
Anything you want done baby
I do it naturally
Whoa whoa whoa
(Pump up the groove, Pump up the groove)
Whoa whoa whoa

[Verse 2]
I can sense your needs
Like rain on to the seeds
I can make a rhyme
Of confusion in your mind
And when it comes to some good old fashioned lovin'
That's what I've got

[Chorus]
I'm every woman
It's all in me
Anything you want done baby
I do it naturally
(I'll move mountains for ya)
I'm every woman
It's all in me
I can read your thoughts right now
Every one from A to Z
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa

[Breakdown]
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Find out what it means to me
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Take care, TCB
Sock it, sock it sock it to me, sock it to me
Just a little bit
A little bit
Just a little bit
What you want
Baby, I got it
What you need
Do you know I got it?
All I'm asking is for a little respect when you come home (just a little bit)
Baby (just a little bit) when you get home
(Just a little bit) do it for me (just a little bit)
Keep on, keep on getting up
Keep on doing, doing your stuff
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Come on and take care of me

[Outro]
I'm every woman
(Walking pretty from sea city)
I'm every woman
(I am the queen behind the king)
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
(Pump up the groove, Pump up the groove)
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
(Just a little bit)
I'm every female
(Just a little bit)
I'm every sweet thing in

Aretha Franklin

Aretha Franklin is both a 20th and 21st century musical and cultural icon known simply by her first Aretha. She is the reigning and undisputed “Queen Of Soul” with a legacy that spans five decades. A native of Detroit, Michigan, Aretha began her career singing gospel at her father, minister C. L. Franklin’s church as a child. In 1960, at the age of 18, Aretha embarked on a secular career, recording for Columbia Records with modest success.

After moving to Atlantic Records in 1967, she released a steady string of US top ten hits through 1973 including “Spanish Harlem”, “Chain Of Fools”, “Baby I Love You”, “Since You’ve Been Gone”, “Daydreaming”, “The House That Jack Built”, “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman", ”Think“ and her first chart-topper “Respect” – a song that also won Aretha her first of 18 Grammys. During this time, several of her songs were also successful overseas.

By the mid-70s, Aretha’s commercial success waned and she left Atlantic for Clive Davis' Arista Records in 1980. Her 1982 song “Jump to It,” returned her to the top 40 for the first time in six years. 1985’s Who’s Zoomin' Who? got her back into the top 10 twice with its title track and “Freeway Of Love”. Four more songs reached the top 40 through 1986.
