Thank you very much for being so patient
We are about ready to start
For those of you who are with us tonight for the first time
We'd like to welcome you to the religious recording session
Of Miss Aretha Franklin and the Southern California community choir
And we'd like to say to you it is live tonight
And we want you to be a part of this recording session
And we want you to get involved, clap you hands, say amen
Help us to have a good time
I am sure, tonight that you're in store for a very rare treat
How many were here last night? (I was, us)
Was it alright? (Oh, yeah) alright
Now when we say here...
All these cameras and things you see about 'round here
This is ah, Warner Brothers
Gettin' it together for television
Don't be bashful when the camera comes your way
We don't know if it'll get back again
So while it comin' your way
Get in on it, alright?
I don't want you to feel too bad at me
If you see me movin' around
Wherever I see 'em grindin', that's where I'ma be
Listen here, did you come to have a good time? (Yes, yeah!)
Oh, don't talk to me like that!
If you're at a ball game, somebody made a touchdown
Or hit a homerun, you'd make some noise
I said, "Did you come to have a good time?" Didn't I? (Yeah, yes)
Ah, there, very good
Won't you welcome my choir (well)
The young folk that I love (yeah, alright)
Young people that are going to
Back Miss Aretha Franklin tonight
Young folk that I'm proud of
We've been singin' it for two years
And we've been singin' it until it has finally become a reality
"We are on our way" (alright)
