Do Right Woman - Do Right Man
Aretha Franklin version
(Dan Penn - Spooner Oldham)

Intro:

A/F# E A D/A A [N.C.]
v v v v v v
-11----9-----|-------------|-------------

(take me to...)

Verse:

A
Take me to heart
E6 E
And I'll always love you
D
And nobody
A
Can make me do wrong

A
Take me for granted
E6 E
Leaving love unshown
D
Makes willpower weak

And temptation strong

A woman's only human

E
She's not just a plaything

She's flesh and blood just like a man

Chorus:

A D/A B
If you want a do right all days woman
(do right do right do right do right woman)
E7 A
You've gotta be a do right all nights man
(do right do right do right do right man)

Bridge:

F#m
Yeah, yeah, they say that it's a man's world
C#m
But you can't prove that by me
F#m
And as long as we're together, baby
E [N.C.]
Show some respect for me

[repeat chorus]

[repeat pre-chorus]

Coda:

A D/A B
If you want a do right all days woman
(do right do right do right do right)
E7 A
You've gotta be a do right all nights man
E7 A
You've gotta be a do right all nights man

A
