I don’t want nobody, always
Sittin’ around me and my man
I don’t want nobody, always
Sittin’ around there
Lookin’ at me and that man

Be it my mother, my brother, my sister
Would you believe, I get up
Put on some clothes
Go out and help me find somebody for this self,
if I can’

Now I don’t mind company
Because company’s alright with me
Every once in awhile
Yes it is,
Now I don’t mind company
Because company is alright with me
Every once in awhile, yeah

And Ooooooooooooooh
When me an that man get to lovin’
I tell ya girl, I dig ya, but I don’t have time
To sit, and chit, and sit and chit-chat an smile

Don’t send me no doctor          breaks on G lead into hits on one with I IVamens
Fill me up with all a those pills
I got me a man named Doctor Feelgood
Yeah! Yeah!
That man takes care of all my pains and ills
His name is Doctor Feelgood in the morning
To take care of business is really this man’s game
And after one visit to Dr. Feelgood,
You understand why I feel good, in this pain.
Oh! Yeah! Oooh!  hold on D after walk up
Oh, good God a-mighty
The man sure makes me feel real……..
Goooooooood!

Hey Sister, Go Sister, Soul Sister, Go Sister (x2)
He met Marmalade down in Old New Orleans
Struttin’ her stuff on the street
She said ‘Hello,
hey Joe, you wanna give it a go?
‘Mmm Hmmm Gitchi Gitchi Ya Ya Da Da (?)
Gitchi Gitchi Ya Ya
Here (?)
Mocca chocolata Ya Ya
Creole Lady Marmalade
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?
Stayed in her pool while
watch he crashing up
That boy drank all that night don’t know why
Oh the last sight she went
he started to freak
Gitchi Gitchi Ya Ya Da Da
Gitchi Gitchi Ya Ya Here
Mocca chocalata Ya Ya
Creole Lady Marmalade
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?
Heh, Heh, Hehhhh
Seeing her skin feeling silky smooth
Colour of cafe au lait
Made the savage beast inside
Roaring till it cried More, More, More
Now he’s at home doing 9 to 5
Living his brave life of lies
But when he turns off to sleep
All memories keep More, More, More
Gitchi Gitchi Ya Ya Da Da Da
Gitchi Gitchi Ya Ya here
Mocca chocolata Ya Ya
Creole Lady Marmalade
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?
Voulez-vous couchez avec moi ce soir?
Creole Lady Marmalade

bbm6 2 bars
No, you’re never gonna get it (Ow!)
Never ever gonna get it (No, not this time)
No, you’re never gonna get it (My love)
Never ever gonna get it
(repeat) (8)
I remember how it used to be
You never was this nice, you can’t fool me
Now you talkin’ like you made a change
The more you talk, the more things sound the same (8)
ebm cm F | bbm | ebm cm F |bbm |
ebm cm F | bbm |ebm cm F |F| (8)
What makes you think you can just walk back into her life
Without a good fight? Oh…
I just sit back and watch you make a fool of yourself
’cause you’re just wasting your time, oh…
CHORUS
No, you’re never gonna get it (Not this time)
Never ever gonna get it (My lovin’)
No, you’re never gonna get it (Had your chance to make a change)
Never ever gonna get it (8)
(repeat)
Verse
Now you promise me the moon and stars
Save your breath, you won’t get very far
Gave you many chances to make change
The only thing you changed was love to hate (8)
ebm cm F | bbm | ebm cm F |bbm |

ebm cm F | bbm |ebm cm F |F|

It doesn’t matter what you do or what you say
She doesn’t love you, no way
Maybe next time you’ll give your woman a little respect
So you won’t be hearing her say, “No way”

CHORUS (8)

So you won’t be hearing her say, “No way”

Aretha Franklin – Rock Steady

December 10, 2008 · Leave a Comment

A7—D7 on instrumental breaks

Rock steady baby!
That’s what I feel now
Let’s call this song exactly what it is

Step n’ move your hips
With a feelin’ from side to side
Sit yourself down in your car
And take a ride

And while you’re movin’
Rock steady
Rock steady baby
Let’s call this song exactly what it is
(What it is -what it is – what it is)

It’s a funky and low down feelin’
(What it is)
In my hips from left to right
(What it is)
What it is
Is I might be doin’
(What it is)
This funky dance all night
Oh!
(Let me hear ya gotta feelin’ in the air)
Oh!
(Gotta a feelin’ an ain’t got a care)
Oh!
(What fun to take this ride
Rock steady will only slide)

Rock steady…….. rock steady baby
Rock steady…….. rock steady baby

(Instrumental)

Step and move your hips
With a feelin’ from side to side
Sit yourself down in your car
And take a ride
While you’re movin’ rock steady
Rock steady

Let’s call this song exactly what it is
(What it is -what it is – what it is)
It’s a funky and low down feelin’
(What it is)
In my hips from left to right
(What it is)
What it is – is I might be doin’
(What it is)
This funky dance all night
Oooooooooooooh
(Wave your hands up in the air
Got the feelin’ an ain’t got a care)
Oooooooooooooh
(What fun to take this ride)
(Rock steady will only slide)

Rock steady baby
Rock steady… woo!
Rock steady

(Instrumental)

(Rock…. steady!… rock… steady!)

(What it is)
It’s a funky and low down feelin’
(What it is)
In my hips from left and right
(What it is)
What it is
Is I might be doin’
This funky dance all night

Oooooooooooooh
(Wave your hands up in the air)
Oooooooooooooh
(Got a feelin’ an ain’t got a care)
Oooooooooooooh
(What fun to take this ride)
Oooooooooooooh
(Rock steady will only slide)

Rock steady
Steady it baby!
Rock….rock steady baby
