I know you've been hurt by someone else
I can tell by the way you carry yourself
But if you let me here's what I'll do
I'll take care of you

I, I've loved and lost the same as you
So you see I know just what you've been through
But if you'll let me here's what I'll do
Oh, I just got to take care of you

You won't ever have to worry
You won't ever have to cry
I'll be there beside you
To dry your weeping eyes

So darling tell me that you'll be true
For there is no doubt in my mind I know what I want to do
Understand, sure as one and one is two
Oh, you know I'll take care of you
I'll take care of you

  • @Aaaara199 this was originally by bob bland then covered by gil scott heron which was remixed by jamie xx then reworked for drake and rihanna

  • Drake and rihanna sampled this text....

  • Bobby Blue Bland does agreat version of this too

  • i don't usually comment but 'way better than aretha??' at the moment, for me, it's all about etta but aretha truly has her own thing. they are different. both fantastic

  • beyond reponse...........forever touched my soul

  • -What a great cover. What year, what album and what label is this.? I need to go find it . Sorry we just lost her. What a great talent. Always better than Aretha.

  • Wow! I get goosebumps just listening to this great artist's singing! ♥

  • Chau Diosa divina

  • Toasting to your beautiful soul, Etta. Thank you for sharing your voice to the world.

  • This is the Voice. Pain and sincerity can only create music that sounds like this. This woman was the epitome of soul, emotion, and performance. improvisation as she see fit, a backing band and a shitty mic, the real meat of jazz....thats all you need if you have IT within you. She is the Mother to all these present day emulators, these soulless voices that came after....Take note singers of today, and then give up. Mama don't play.

    You were like no other. You will be missed.
