Aretha Franklin — Sweet Sweet Baby Since Youve Been Gone Live in Paris 1968

[Verse 1] 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'll feel a thrill You said I do And I said I will [Pre-Chorus] I told you that I'll stay true And give you just a little time Wait on me, baby I want you to be all mine I have been so blue [Chorus] Since you've been gone, ah baby (Why'd you do it? why'd you have to do it?) Since you've been gone, yeah (Why'd you do it?) Yeah (Why'd you have to do it?) [Verse 2] Baby baby, sweet baby 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 ah, baby Hey hey, hear me, hear me now (Hear me) I don't know what I'm gonna do (Hear me) Yeah, to get you back somehow (Hear me now) [Pre-Chorus] And I'm trying Take me back Consider me please If you walk in that door I can get up off my knees But I've just been so blue [Chorus] Since you've been gone (Why'd you do it? Why'd you have to do it?) Hey baby, since you've been gone (Why'd you do it? Why'd you have to do it?) [Outro] Yeah now, I've been so lonely (Sweet sweet - sweet sweet baby) Baby, since you've been gone (Sweet sweet - sweet sweet baby) Yeah now, and I've been so lonely (Why'd you do it? why'd you have to do it?) Hey baby, since you've been gone (Why'd you do it? why'd you have to do it?) Yeah, baby baby baby baby baby, sweet sweet baby Since you've been gone, yeah now (Sweet sweet - sweet sweet baby) Baby baby baby baby baby baby, sweet sweet baby Since you've been gone, yeah
