A little something to make me sweeter
 Oh baby refrain from breaking my heart
 I'm so in love with you
 I'll be forever blue
 That you give me no reason
 Why you're making me work so hard
 That you give me no
 That you give me no
 That you give me no
 That you give me no
 Soul, I hear you calling
 Oh baby please give a little respect to me

 And if I should falter
 Would you open your arms out to me
 We can make love not war
 And live at peace with our hearts
 I'm so in love with you
 I'll be forever blue
 What religion or reason
 Could drive a man to forsake his lover
 Don't you tell me no
 Don't you tell me no
 Don't you tell me no
 Don't you tell me no
 Soul, I hear you calling
 Oh baby please give a little respect to me

 I'm so in love with you
 I'll be forever blue
 That you give me no reason
 Why you're making me work so hard
 That you give me no
 That you give me no
 That you give me no
 That you give me no
 Soul, I hear you calling
 Oh baby please give a little respect to me
 Soul, I hear you calling
 Oh baby please give a little respect to me
