Aretha Franklin — Love the One You’re With

[Spoken Intro] A little something that we're experimenting with tonight So we hope you enjoy it as much as we're going to enjoy doing it [Verse 1] Tell me how can you get through When you can't remember who you're talking to Your concentration is just slippin' away Because your baby is so far away [Chorus] And the rose in a fisted Glove And the eagle flies with the dove And if you can't be with the one you love Why don't you love the one you're with Why don't you love the one you're with Yeah, it's alright, ain't it? [Verse 2] Don’t be angry (Don’t be) Baby, don’t be sad (Don’t be) Don’t sit back top thinking about some goods that you had There’s a boy sitting next to you Why don’t you check him out, see what he wants to get into [Chorus] There’s a rose in a fisted glove And the eagle flies with the dove And if you can’t be with the one that you love Why don’t you love the one you’re with Love the one you’re with Yeah, it’s alright, ain't it? Ha ha [Bridge] Dah-dah Dah-dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah-dah Dah-dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah-dah Dah-dah-dah, dah-dah-dah, hey Love the one you’re with Love the one, love the one you’re with Love the one [Verse 3] Don’t be angry (Don’t be) Don’t be sad (Don’t be) Don’t sit back fooling about some good times you had Because there’s a boy, standing right next to you And you don’t know what he wants to get into Check him out [Chorus] There’s a rose in a fisted glove And the eagle flies with the dove And if you can’t be with the one you love Why don’t you love the one you’re with Love the one you’re with Love the one you’re with, yeah Love the one you’re with, mmm You ought to love The one you’re with (Why don’t you) You ought to love (Why don’t you) The one that you’re with (Why don’t you) Why don’t you love (Why don’t you) The one you’re with (Why don’t you) You ought to love (Why don’t you) The one you’re with (Why don’t you) Oooooh Dah-dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah-dah Dah-dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah-dah Dah-dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah-dah Dah-dah-dah, dah-dah-dah, huh You ought to love (Why don’t you) The one you’re with (Why don’t you) Why don’t you love (Why don’t you) The one that you’re with (Why don’t you) You ought to love (Why don’t you) Love the one you’re with (Why don’t you) Tell me why don’t you (Why don’t you) Love the one you’re with (Why don’t you) Oooooh Dah-dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah-dah Dah-dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah-dah Dah-dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah-dah Dah-dah-dah, dah-dah-dah [Outro] Thank you for making me feel real good
