Ain't No Way
Aretha Franklin · 100 Hits Legends-Aretha Franklin [2010]
Ain't no way for me to love you
If you won't let me
It ain't no way for me to give you all ya need
If you won't let me give all of me
(ooooooo)
I know that a woman's duty
Is to help and love the man
And that's the way it was for me
(ooooooo)
Oh but how can I, how can I, how can I, give ya
Give ya all the things I can
If you're tyin' both of my hands
Whoa-ho it ain't no way (ain't no way)
(It ain't no) way-ay-ay (ain't no way)
It just ain't no way baby
(Ain't no way) ain't no way baby
(Ain't no way)
It ain't no way-hey-hey
For you me to love you (hoooo)
If you won't let me
Stop tryin' to be someone you're not
(Oooooo)
hard cold and cruel is a man
Who paid too much for what hes' got
And if you need me to love you
Say, say yeah you do!
then baaby baaby.
Don't you know that I need you
Oooh it ain't no way (oooo-oooo)
I tell ya that it ain't no way
It ain't no way, it ain't no way bab-ay, no
It just ai-ai-n't no way, it sho' ain't no way
It ain't no way-ay-hey-ay for me to love you
If you won't let me

And that's the way it was for me
(ooooooo)
Oh but how can I, how can I, how can I, give ya
Give ya all the things I can
If you're tyin' both of my hands
