Ain´t got life, Nina Simone

I ain't got no home, ain't got no shoes

Ain't got no money, ain't got no class

Ain't got no skirts, ain't got no sweater

Ain't got no perfume, ain't got no bed

Ain't got no man

Ain't got no mother, ain't got no culture

Ain't got no friends, ain't got no schoolin'

Ain't got no love, ain't got no name

Ain't got no ticket, ain't got no token

Ain't got no god

Hey, what have I got?

Why am I alive , anyway?

Yeah, what have I got

Nobody can take away?

Got my hair, got my head

Got my brains, got my ears

Got my eyes, got my nose

Got my neck, got my boobies

Got my heart, got my soul

Got my back, I got my sex

I got my arms, got my hands

Got my fingers, got my legs

Got my feet, got my toes

Got my liver, got my blood

I've got life, I've got my freedom

I've got life

I've got the life

And I'm going to keep it

I've got the life

Respect,    Aretha Franklin

All I'm askin'

Is for a little respect when you get home (just a little bit)

Hey baby (just a little bit) when you get home

I ain't gonna do you wrong while you're gone

Ain't gonna do you wrong cause I don't wanna

All I'm askin'

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)

And all I'm askin' in return, honey

All I want you to do for me

Is give it to me when you get home (re, re, re ,re)

A little respect (sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me)

Whoa, babe (just a little bit)

A little respect (just a little bit)

Keep on tryin' (just a little bit)

You're runnin' out of fools (just a little bit)

And I ain't lyin' (just a little bit)

(Re, re, re, re) when you come home

(Re, re, re ,re) 'spect

Or you might walk in (respect, just a little bit)

And find out I'm gone (just a little bit)

I got to have (just a little bit)

A little respect (just a little bit)

Song writer: Otis Redding

March is Women History Month!

March is Women History Month, and we have to celebrate it and honor it!

We are starting with this very famous song you have heard before and you can watch here three different versions of it!

YOU DON´T OWN ME 

Grace , cover version of the original song of 1963

,

YOU DON´T OWN ME

Lesley  Gore, the first one to sing the song in 1963!

You don't own me

I'm not just one of your many toys

You don't own me

Don't say I can't go with other boys

And don't tell me what to do

Don't tell me what to say

And please, when I go out with you

Don't put me on display 'cause

You don't own me

Don't try to change me in any way

You don't own me

Don't tie me down 'cause I'd never stay

I don't tell you what to say

I don't tell you what to do

So just let me be myself

That's all I ask of you

I'm young and I love to be young

I'm free and I love to be free

To live my life the way I want

To say and do whatever I please

And don't tell me what to do

Oh, don't tell me what to say

And please, when I go out with you

Don't put me on display

I don't tell you what to say

Oh, don't tell you what to do

So just let me be myself

That's all I ask of you

I'm young and I love to be young

I'm free and I love to be free

To live

You don´t own me: The first Wives Club

Whatever you want, whatever you need,

Anything you want done, baby,

I'll do it naturally

'Cause I'm every woman (every woman)

It's all in me, it's all in me, yeah!

I'm every woman, it's all in me.

Anything you want done, baby, I'll do it naturally.

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

I can cast a spell, of secrets you can tell,

Mix a special brew, put fire inside of you.

Anytime you feel danger or fear,

Then instantly I will appear 'cause

I'm every woman, it's all in me.

Anything you want done, baby, I'll do it naturally.

Whoa whoa whoa, whoa whoa whoa

I can sense your needs

Like rain unto the seeds.

I can make a rhyme of confusion in your mind.

And when it comes back to some good old-fashioned love,

I've got it, I've got it, I've got it, got it, baby, 'cause

I'm every woman, it's all in me.

Anything you want done, baby, I'll do it naturally.

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

I ain't braggin' 'cause I am the one

You just ask me, ooh, it shall be done.

And don't bother to compare, I've got it.

whoa whoa whoa, whoa whoa whoa

whoa whoa whoa

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 (Chaka Khan), I'm every woman (Chaka Khan)

I'm every woman, I'm every woman
