The Makings of You lyrics

by

Aretha Franklin


[Intro]
Darling, darling, darling, oh baby

[Verse 1]
Add just a little more sugar, honeysuckle lamb
A great expression of happiness
Boy, you couldn't miss with a dozen roses
Such would astound you
The joy of children laughing all around you
These are the makings of you
It is true, the makings of you

[Verse 2]
The righteous way to go
Anyone would know
All believe if I told him so
You're second to none, baby
The love of all mankind should reflect some sign
Of the words that I'm trying to recite
They're close but they're not quite
Almost impossible to do
Describing the makings of you

[Bridge]
Oh, it's been a miracle for what you've done
Please, baby, stay by my side
We two can be one for the righteous way to go
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
You are my recipe, baby
And so much more it is to me
And a faithful spiritual, you know
We grow, oh, oh, oh, you birthed in me a pride
I just don't wanna hide
This love I had for you is so beautiful
I had my notion here of you
So true, woo, imagine the makings of you

[Outro]
Baby, baby, baby, baby, sweet baby
The makings of you
[Scatting]
We are, we are
The makings of you
[Scatting]
The makings of you
Sweet baby
All of you
