Obsessed With Aretha Lyrics

(Am) Em D C Am You get a lot of girl singers obsessed with Aretha (Am) Em D C Am You get a lot of little swingers wishin' they could be her Em D Some of those sisters can rock and roll C Am All God's children gotta little bit of soul Em D C Am But not that much no no no not that much You get a lot of fat Christians you want to throw to the lions Put em in a barrel, roll em off the top of Mount Zion Ignorant acceptance is their only aim With Jesus your life'll be better they claim But not that much no no no not that much Instrumental verse D C Yeah but when you hear Aretha singing on some advertisement D C Or with a big fussy band on some rock'n'roll museum concert Em D She's still got the lungs and the dress and the stole C Am You might even say the girl's still got soul Em D C Am But not that much no no no not that much You get a lot of little monkeys swingin' from the treetops You get a lot of little flunkeys singin' on Top of the Pops Some of them appear in the gutter press Tellin' you their lives are a mess But not that much no no no not that much You get a lot of little stringers pullin' out their penknives Cuttin' up history Jugglin' with lives Bein' a reporter is a glamorous trade You don't even have to tell the truth to get paid Well not that much no no no not that much Yeah but when you hear Aretha singing on some advertisement Or with a big fussy band on some hall of fame concert She's still got the lungs and the dress and the mink stole You might even say the girl's still got soul But not that much no no no not that much Outro: Hey ay ay ay etc Em D C Am twice then fade)
