Lyrics

And now the young lady that
 We have all been waiting to hear
 She is known by many names
 And deservedly so
 She's earned every title
 But it's my pleasure tonight to just say my sister
 Miss Aretha Franklin, give her big hand
 ♪
 Now, as you know this is a recording session and
 If things should happen and we have to take it over
 You understand how that is
 So if you said Amen on it first
 And we have to take it over
 When we get back to that spot you say Amen again, yeah?
 And if we have to take it over again you say Amen again
 Alright, uh, she could have been easy and have gone to the studio and done this album
 But she wanted to do something live
 And the only reason we want to do it live is to get the audience participation
 So now those of you here got to sound like about two thousand
 Can you sound like two thousand? (Make me hear, come on, yeah)
 Our irst selection, tonight is going to be a little number
 That was done by brother Marvin Gaye, and it's called "Wholy, holy"
 Ladies and gentlemen Aretha Franklin, Southern California choir
 Wholy, holy
