Lyrics Aretha Franklin

Aretha Franklin

Integrity

Let me run this by you...

I know that you've been jivin' me

And you're cold as you can be

But I leave room for something real

Is it something that you ever feel?

You don't live up to the expected

And your true feelings you've neglected

Don't worry about it, your love I can do without it

Move over baby 'cause you're really in the way

Something really good's gonna happen today

If you can't dig on me and really bring it home

Try being a man on you very own

If your love is not for me, at least use some integrity

Why don't you use some integrity?

I know that you got your daddy's way

But your daddy's day was yesterday

Time has moved on and things have changed

Ladies' priorities re-arranged

You wanna be appreciated

What you give is so underrated

Well

One would think there was no one but you

And you're the very thing to make you blue

Do I make you feel insecure?

Do you need control?

Would it help you just to know

You've won my heart and you're on a roll

It ain't been told a woman's love as sweet as mine

You're a star and I help you shine

There's a good woman behind every man

Let's go from one and revise the plan

Do the do for me

And it ain't been told a woman's love as sweet as mine

You're a star and I help you shine

There's a good woman behind every man

Let's go from one and revise the plan

And if your love is not for me, at least use some integrity

Come on

Why don't you use some integrity?

Put the word in your vocabulary

Look it up in you dictionary

Don't run your jive on me

Well you wanna be trusted

But your show been busted

You think ladies are toys

I like the big boys

Yes I do

With integrity

Talkin' about non-commital

All that is, my man, is about givin' a lot for a little

Integrity...
