Hi all

Ok.....y'know that feeling where you remember some words from a song but not the song title or artist but want to find it but can't (please say yes ) ?

Well I've got it now. I can't remember what I was doing earlier but somehow I remembered a song with the lyrics something like "Its what I want, I've what ive got, its what im gonna get (or what ive got to get) " or something like that, and I know it was sung by a woman.

Any ideas?

respect ?................

aretha franklin

heres the lyrics in full

oo) What you want
(oo) Baby, I got
(oo) What you need
(oo) Do you know I got it?
(oo) All I'm askin'
(oo) Is for a little respect when you come home (just a little bit)
Hey baby (just a little bit) when you get home
(just a little bit) mister (just a little bit)

I ain't gonna do you wrong while you're gone
Ain't gonna do you wrong (oo) 'cause I don't wanna (oo)
All I'm askin' (oo)
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)
Yeah (just a little bit)

I'm about to give you all of my money
And all I'm askin' in return, honey
Is to give me my profits
When you get home (just a, just a, just a, just a)
Yeah baby (just a, just a, just a, just a)
When you get home (just a little bit)
Yeah (just a little bit)

------ instrumental break ------

Ooo, your kisses (oo)
Sweeter than honey (oo)
And guess what? (oo)
So is my money (oo)
All I want you to do (oo) for me
Is give it to me when you get home (re, re, re ,re)
Yeah baby (re, re, re ,re)
Whip it to me (respect, just a little bit)
When you get home, now (just a little bit)

R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Find out what it means to me
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Take care, TCB

Oh (sock it to me, sock it to me,
sock it to me, sock it to me)
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)
I get tired (just a little bit)
Keep on tryin' (just a little bit)
You're runnin' out of foolin' (just a little bit)
And I ain't lyin' (just a little bit)
(re, re, re, re) 'spect
When you come home (re, re, re ,re)
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)

I have exactly the same problem with Sunita or Suneeta or however you spell it!
I know some of the words:
Something about keeping a secret, then "cross my heart and hope to die"
Then the secret is that her boyfriends been seeing someoene else "cross my broken heart and hope to die," i think... rather depressing like!

Hi. I will try and look it up but judging by the lyrics, I don't think it is that. Thanks anyway though.

Not too sure if this helps but it was done in the last 10 or so years I think. Also contains the lyrics "its what i am" if that helps.

Got a new one: "Take me dancing naked in the rain..." Who sings it?!!

Blue Peal perhaps?

One final bump cause searching for this song is driving my mad .

Emma Bunton (or Edie Brickell but that was 1989) What i am



I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know, if you know what I mean
Philosophy is the talk on a cereal box
Religion is the smile on a dog
I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know, if you know what I mean, d-doo yeah

Choke me in the shallow waters
Before I get too deep

What I am is what I am
Are you what you are or what?
What I am is what I am
Are you what you are or

Oh, I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know, if you know what I mean
Philosophy is a walk on the slippery rocks
Religion is a light in the fog
I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know, if you know what I mean, d-doo yeah

Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep

What I am is what I am
Are you what you are or what?
What I am is what I am
Are you what you are or what?

What I am is what I am
Are you what you are or what?
What I am is what I am
Are you what you are or what you are and

What I am is what I am
Are you what you are or what?

Don't let me get too deep
Don't let me get too deep
Don't let me get too deep
Don't let me get too deep

Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep
Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep

Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep
Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep

Thanks!!! I was just listening through it thinking 'mnn, its very similar backing music but I don't remember the lyrics' and just as I was about to turn it off, the chorus came on and I realised it was the one.

Thanks again!
