There Is A Fountain Filled With Blood lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

There is
A fountain filled
With blood
Drawn from
Immanuel's veins

And sinners
Sinners plunged
Beneath that flood

Sinners
Sinners plunged
Beneath that flood
Lose all
Their guilty stains

Lose all their guilty stains, yeah (Guilty stains)
Lose all their guilty stains
And sinners plunged
Beneath that flood
Lose all
Their guilt
Guilty
Guilty stains

Yeah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Yeah, yeah-yeah

Hallelujah
Glory
Hallelujah
Did somebody say?
When you're running through the storm

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah
Yeah
Woo
Hallelujah

Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate The Positive lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

You've got to ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive and
E-li-mi-nate the negative and
Hang on to the affirmative
But don't mess with Mr. In-between

You've got to spread joy up to the maximum and
Bring gloom down to the minimum and
Have faith or pandemonium
Is liable to walk upon the scene

To illustrate, our last remark
Jonah in the whale, Noah in the ark
Tell me what did they do
Just when everything looked so dark?

Man, they say you've got to
Ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive and
E-li-mi-nate the negative and
Hang on to the affirmative
But don't mess with Mr. In-between

To illustrate my last remark
Jonah in the whale, Noah in the ark
Tell me what did they do
Just when everything looked so dark?

Man, they say you've got to
Ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive and
E-li-mi-nate the negative and
Hang on to the affirmative
But don't mess, don't mess with Mr. In-between
No, no, no don't mess
I say, I say don't mess
You better not
Don't mess with Mr. In-between

Nature Boy lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(originally by Nat King Cole)
(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah
Oh, oh

There was a boy, a very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far, over land and sea
A little shy, sad goodbye, but very wise
Plus he

And then one day
A magic day, he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things, fools and kings
This he said to me
The greatest thing ever
Is just to love, and be loved in return

Oh, ooh, ooh
Ooh
Mmm-mmm, oh

And then one day
That magic day, he passed my way
And while he spoke of many things, fools and kings
All this he said to me
The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love, and be loved in return

Yes, it is
Ooh, to love
Yes, to love
To be loved, I said
To be loved in return
To be loved
Said the greatest, greatest, greatest, greatest
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
I wanna be loved, eee-eee
In return

I Never Loved A Man (The Way I Love You) lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(originally by Aretha Franklin)
(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

You're no good heartbreaker
You're a liar, you're a cheat
I don't know why
I let you do these things to me
Friends keep telling me
That you ain't no good
But oh-oh-oh, they don't know
I'd leave you if I could
I guess I'm uptight
And I'm stuck like glue

'Cause I ain't never
I ain't never, I ain't never, oh, no
Loved a man, the way that I, I love you

Some times ago I thought
That you had run out of fools
But I was so wrong
You got one that you'll never lose
The way you treat me is a shame
How could you hurt me so bad?
Baby, you know that I'm the best thing
That you ever had

So kiss me once again
Don't you never say that we we're through

'Cause I ain't never
Never, never, oh, no
Loved a man the way that I, I love you

I can't sleep at night
And I can't eat a bite
I guess I'll never be free
Since you got your hooks in me
Oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah

I ain't never loved a man
I ain't never had a man
I ain't never had a man that hurt me so bad, no
Y'all, this is what I'm going to do about it
I'm gonna hold on to the man I know, hold on to the man
Loved a man, the way that I, I love you

Do Right Woman, Do Right Man lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(originally by Aretha Franklin)
(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

Take me to heart and I'll always love you
And nobody can make me do wrong
Take me for granted, leavin' love un-shown
Makes willpower weak and temptation strong

A woman's only human
You should understand
She's not just a plaything
She's flesh and blood just like a man

If you want a do-right-all-day-woman
(Woman)
You gotta be a do-right-all-night-man
(Man)

Yeah, they say that it's a man's world
But you can't prove that by me
And as long as we're together, baby
Show some respect for me

'Cause if you want a do-right-all-day-woman
(Woman)
You gotta be a do-right-all-night-man
(Man)

A woman's only human
This you should understand
She's not just a plaything
She's flesh and blood just like a man

'Cause if you want a do-right-all-day-woman
You gotta be a do-right-all-night-man
You gotta be a do-right-all-night-man

Dr. Feelgood lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(originally by Aretha Franklin)
(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

I don't want nobody, always
Sittin' around me and my man
I don't want nobody, always
Sittin' right there
Lookin' at me and that man
Be it my mother, my brother, or my sister
Would you believe, I'll get up, put on some clothes
Get out and help them find somebody for theirself if I can
Yes, I will

I don't mind company
Because company's alright with me every once in awhile
Yes, it is
I tell ya, I don't mind company
Because company's alright with me every, every once in awhile
Yes
Oh, when me and that man get to lovin'
I tell you, girl, I dig you, but I just don't have time
To sit, and chit, and sit and chit-chat and smile

Don't send me no doctor
Fillin' me up with all of those pills
I got a man named Doctor Feelgood
And oh, that man takes care of my pains and my ills
His name is Doctor Feelgood in the morning
And takin' care of business is really this man's game
And after one visit to Doctor Feelgood
You'll understand why Feelgood is his name

Oh, oh, oh
Good God almighty, that man makes me feel real
Good

Sweet Sweet Baby (Since You've Been Gone) lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(originally by Aretha Franklin)
(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

Baby, baby, sweet baby
There's something that I just got to say
Baby, baby, sweet baby
You left me hurtin' in a real cold way

Speak your name
And I feel a thrill
You said, "I do"
Hey, and I said, "I will"

I told you to just be true
And give me just a little time
Wait on me, baby, I want you to be all mine
I just get so blue

Since you've been gone
(Why'd you do it? Why'd you have to do it?)
Oh, yeah
Since you've been gone
(Why'd you do it? Why'd you have to do it?)

Baby, baby, sweet baby (Sweet, sweet)
I didn't mean to run you away
It was pride on my lips but not in my heart
To say the things that made you stray

But, oh, baby
Hear me now (Hear me)
I don't know what I'm gonna do (Hear me)
Got to get you back somehow (Hear me now)

I'm prayin', take me back
Consider me please
If you walk in that door, I can get up off my knees
I've just been so blue

Since you've been gone
(Why'd you do it? Why'd you have to do it?)
Oh, yeah
Since you've been gone
(Why'd you do it? Why'd you have to do it?)

I've been so lonely
(Sweet-sweet, sweet-sweet baby)
Since you've been gone
(Sweet-sweet, sweet-sweet baby)
I've been so lonely
(Why'd you do it? Why'd you have to do it?)
Since you've been gone
(Why'd you do it? Why'd you have to do it?)

Ain't No Way lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(originally by Aretha Franklin)
(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

Ain't no way
For me to love you
If you won't let me

It ain't no way
For me to give you all you need
If you won't let me give all of me

I know that a woman's duty
Is to help and love a man
That's the way it was planned

Oh but how can I, how can I, how can I
Give you all the things I can, well
If you're tying both of my hands?

Oh-ooh it ain't no way (Ain't no way)
It ain't no way, yeah (Ain't no way)
Ooh it ain't no way (Ain't no way)
It sure ain't no way (Ain't no way)
Ain't no way for me to love you
If you won't let me

Stop trying to be someone you're not
Hard, cold and cruel is the man
Who paid too much for what he got
And if you need me like you say, say you do
Oh then please, please, please
Don't you know that I need you?

It ain't no way
I tell you that it ain't no way, it ain't no way
It ain't no way, baby
No, it just ain't no way
It sure ain't no way
Ain't no way for me to love you
If you won't let me
If you won't, if you won't, if you won't
Won't let me
If you won't, if you won't let me, baby

(You Make Me Feel Like A) Natural Woman lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(originally by Aretha Franklin)
(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

Looking out on the morning rain
I used to feel so uninspired
And when I knew I had to face another day
Lord, it made me feel so tired

Before the day I met you, life was so unkind
But you're the key to my peace of mind

'Cause you make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman (Woman)

And when my soul was in the lost and found
You came along to claim it
I didn't know just what was wrong with me
'Til your kiss helped me name it

Now I'm no longer doubtful of what I'm living for
But if I make you happy, I don't need to do more

Because you make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman (Woman)

Oh, baby, what you've done to me (What you've done to me)
You made me feel so good inside (Good inside)
And I, I just wanna be (Just wanna be)
Close to you, you make me feel so alive

You make me feel (You make, you make me feel)
You make me feel (Yeah, you make me feel)
You make me feel like a natural woman (Woman, yeah)
(You really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really make me feel)
You make me feel (Make me feel, oh)
You make me feel like a natural woman (Woman, yeah)
(Say it again, say it, you make me feel)
You make me feel (You, you make me feel)
You make me feel like a natural woman

Chain Of Fools lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(originally by Aretha Franklin)
(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools

For five long years
I thought you were my man
But I found out, love
I'm just a link in your chain
You got me where you want me
I ain't nothing but your fool
You treated me mean
Oh, you treated me cruel, oh

Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools

Now every chain
Has got a weak link
I might be weak, yeah
But I'll give you strength, oh, hey
You tell me to leave you alone
My father said, "Come on home"
My doctor said, "Take it easy"
Oh, but your loving is much too strong

I'm added to your chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools

One of these mornings
The chain is gonna break
But up until then
I'm gonna take all that I can take, oh hey

Chain, chain, chain
Chain, chain, chain
Chain, chain, chain, hey
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools, oh, yeah

Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain, chain, chain) Oh
Chain, chain, chain
Chain, chain of fools

Think lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(originally by Aretha Franklin)
(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

You'd better think (Think)
Think about what you're trying to do to me
Think (Think, think)
Let your mind go, let yourself be free

Let's go back, let's go back
Let's go way back when
I didn't even know you
You couldn't've been too much more than ten (Just a child)

I ain't no psychiatrist
I ain't no doctor with degrees
But it don't take too much I.Q.
To see what you're doing to me

You'd better think (Think)
Think about what you're trying to do to me
Think (Think, think)
Let your mind go, let yourself be free

Oh freedom (Freedom)
Freedom (Freedom)
Freedom
Freedom

Freedom
Freedom
Freedom

Hey, think about it
You think about it

There ain't nothing you could ask, I could ask you if I want (But I won't)
I was gonna change but I'm not 'cause you keep doing things I don't

You'd better think (Think)
Think about what you're trying to do to me
Yeah, I said think (Think)
Let your mind go, let yourself be free

See you need me (Need me)
And I need you (Don't you know it)
Without each other, there ain't nothing we can do

Think, think about it right now (What you're trying to do to me)
(Think about it)
You better think

Take My Hand, Precious Lord lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

I wanna say it one more time
For the broken hearts
I want you to take my hand
Lord, lead me on
Oh, oh, oh
'Cause we got to stay
Lord knows I get tired
Lord knows I get weary
Lord, every day
Every day I want, but oh Jesus
Through the storm, ooh
Lord, I need you
Hold my hand
'Cause you are precious Lord, ooh, ooh
Precious Lord, ooh, ooh, ooh
Lead us on

Spanish Harlem lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(originally by Aretha Franklin)
(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la

There's a rose in Black and Spanish Harlem
A rose in Black and Spanish Harlem

It is a special one, it never sees the sun
It only comes up when the moon is on the run
And all the stars are gleaming
He's growing in the street, right up through the concrete
But soft, sweet and dreamy

There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A rose in Black and Spanish Harlem

With eyes as black as coal that look down in his soul
And start a fire there and then he loses control
I'm gonna beg his pardon, yeah
He's going to pick that rose and watch her as she grows
In his garden

There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A rose in Black and Spanish Harlem

With eyes as black as coal that look down in his soul
And start a fire there and then he loses control
But I'm gonna beg his pardon
He's going to pick that rose and watch her as she grows
In his garden

La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la

I Say A Little Prayer lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(originally by Dionne Warwick)
(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

(Say a little prayer for you)
The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little prayer for you
I'm combing my hair now
And wondering what dress to wear now
I say a little prayer for you

Forever and ever, you'll stay in my heart and I will love you
Forever and ever, we never will part, oh, how I love you
Together, forever that's how it must be, to live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me

I run for the bus, dear
But while riding I think of us, dear
I say a little prayer for you
At work, I just take time
And all through my coffee break-time
I say a little prayer for you

Forever and ever, you'll stay in my heart and I will love you
Forever and ever, we never will part, oh, how I love you
Together, forever that's how it must be, to live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me (Nobody but me)

Forever and ever, you'll stay in my heart and I will love you
Forever and ever, we never will part, oh, how I love you
Together, forever that's how it must be, to live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me

My darling, believe me
For me there is no one but you
Please love me too
I'm in love with you
(Answer my prayer, baby) Answer my prayer, baby
(Answer my prayer, baby) Say you love me, too
(Answer my prayer, baby) Oh, answer me right now, baby
(Answer my prayer) Hey

Forever and ever, you'll stay in my heart and I will love you
Forever and ever, we never will part, oh, how I love you
Together, forever that's how it must be, to live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me (Nobody but me)

My darling, believe me
For me there is no one but you
Please love me true
I'm in love with you
(Answer my prayer, baby) Answer my prayer, baby
(Answer my prayer, baby) Answer me right now, baby
(Answer my prayer, baby) Yeah, answer my prayer
(Answer my prayer, baby) Answer my prayer
(Answer my prayer, baby) This is my prayer, baby
(Answer my prayer, baby) Oh, I'm in love with you

Precious Memories lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

(In the stillness)
(Of the midnight)
Oh, Lord
(Sacred secrets will unfold) Sacred secrets will unfold
Oh Lord

In sad hours
Said I remember
I remember my dear mother
Lord, she used to pray
Oh sweet, sweet, sweet, precious memories
In my soul
And in these times
She taught me a prayer
(Lord) yes she did, oh Lord

Amazing Grace lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

Amazing, amazing grace
How, how sweet the, ooh, the sound
That, oh, that saved a wretch like me
I, I, I once was, was lost
But, but now, hmm, I'm found
I was blind, but now I see

Through, through, through, through
Through many dangers, oh, toils, toils and snares
I, I've been in the midst of a storm
But I've, I've already, I've already called
Don't you know that it was, it was, it was grace, ooh
Grace that brought me safe, so safe, safe thus far
And don't you know that same old grace will lead me right on
Right on, right on
Right on home

Here I Am (Singing My Way Home) lyrics - Jennifer Hudson

(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)

I trusted your way
For too, too long
It's time for me to sing
Sing my, my own
Lord
Open, open the gate of Heaven, Lord
Oh, Lord
I'm gonna sing my
Sing my, sing my way
Sing my, sing my way
Sing my way home
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, yeah
Hoo-hoo-hoo
Hoo-hoo-hoo

Well, you're a girl, uh
Born with a voice, but unheard (What now?)
And you're denied, girl
You sing 'cause they won't let you fly on (What now?)

Stepped out on the road, became a woman on the way
Stared the whole world down
'Til you hold it in your hands, say

Here I am (Here I am)
Here I am (Here I am)

You're stronger
Won't be left behind anymore (No more)
Head up high
Spread your wings and own the sky (The sky)

Stepped out on the road, became a woman on the way
Stared the whole world down
'Til you hold it in your hands and say

Here I am (Here I am)
Here I am, here I am, well (Here I am)
Here I am, here I am (Here I am)

Still no justice, still no peace (Here I am)
Here I am, you will respect me

I stepped out on the road, became a woman on the way
Not a thing left to, left to say
But here I am, ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah
