a Natural Woman
Aretha & Otis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Looking out on the morning rain
I used to feel so uninspired
And when I knew I had to face another day
Lord, it made me feel so tired
Before the day I met you, life was so unkind
But you're the key to my peace of mind

'Cause you make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman (woman)

When my soul was in the lost and found
You came along to claim it
I didn't know just what was wrong with me
'Til your kiss helped me name it
Now I'm no longer doubtful, of what I'm living for
And if I make you happy I don't need to do more

'Cause you make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman (woman)

Oh, baby, what you've done to me (what you've done to me)
You make me feel so good inside (good inside)
And I just want to be (want to be)
Close to you, you make me feel so alive

You make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman (woman)

You make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman (woman)

You make me feel
You make me feel

We like natural women! Shut the world down if you dont like it, but its a fact. Being a woman is nothing to be ashamed of. If anyone finds this song offensive they can go find themselves a different planet to live on. Im a man who identifies as a man... Not as a butterfly or twig or whatever horsesh1t some people aspire to being these days! Fight your own battles and leave the majority of us sane people to it! Cant believe some nutters want this song cancelled!

I have loved this song my entire life! Shame on trans activists for trying to say this song is wrong or bad! I hope that oh so politically correct u tube doesn't cave and take it down... I plan to play and share it as much as possible!!

@brandenj7038

To all trans women, non binary and lgbtq+ calling themselves women...and attacking other women...if you were real women you would not have felt the song as offensive....because it's about women...touche

@philipmarable8698

Seeing SJWs complain about this song is just stupid on thier part.

If anything, this song should actually inspire any woman.

@brandenj7038
