Aretha Franklin
Baby, I Love You (Live in Paris, 1968)
[Verse 1]
If you want my lovin'
If you really do
Don’t be afraid, baby
Just ask me
You know I'm gonna give it to you
Oh, and I do declare (I do)
I want to see you with it (Good God)
Stretch out your arms, little boy
You're gonna get it

[Chorus]
’Cause I love you (Baby, baby baby, I love you)
There ain't no doubt about it
Hey, baby, I love you (Baby, baby baby, I love you)
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, baby I love you
Yeah, you know I do

[Verse 2]
If you feel you want to kiss me
Go right ahead, I don't mind
All you got to do is
Snap your fingers and I'll come running
I ain't lying (I ain't lying)
And oh, what you want
Little boy, you know you got it
I'd deny my own self
Before I see you do without it
[Chorus]
Because I love you (Baby, baby baby, I love you)
Ain't no doubt about it
Baby, I love you (Baby, baby baby, I love you)
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, baby I love you
Yeah, you know I do

[Outro]
Someday you might want to run away
And leave me sittin’ here cryin’
But if it's all the same to you, baby
I’m gonna stop you from sayin' goodbye
Baby, I love ya
Hey, baby I need ya
Yeah, baby, I want ya
And I got to have you, baby
Don't let your neighbors
Tell you that I don't want you
Yeah, and don’t let your
Low-down friends say that I don't need ya
Baby, I love you
Hey hey hey, baby, I need ya
Huh huh huh, baby, I want ya
Yeah, you know I do
