Last Thursday, the world lost Aretha Franklin to pancreatic cancer at age 76. In response to the influential Queen of Soul’s passing, country music superstar Chris Stapleton covered “Do Right Woman, Do Right Man” during his All American Road Show Tour stop at The Forum in Los Angeles on Friday night.
“She is the greatest singer that ever lived…and ever will live,” the Kentucky native shared before breaking into song.
“Do Right Woman, Do Right Man” Lyrics
Take me to heart
And I’ll always love you
And nobody can make me do wrong
Take me for granted, leaving love unsure
Makes will power weak
And temptation strong
A woman’s only human
You should understand
She’s not just a plaything
She’s flesh and blood just like her man
If you want a do-right-all-day woman (woman)
You’ve got to be a do-right-all-night man (man)
Yeah yeah,
They say that it’s a man’s world
But you can’t prove that by me
And as long as we’re together baby
Show some respect for me
If you want a do-right-all-day woman (woman)
You’ve got to be a do-right-all-night man (man)
A woman’s only human
Yes, you should understand
She’s not just a plaything
She’s flesh and blood just like her man
If you want a do-right-all-day woman (woman)
You’ve got to be a do-right-all-night man (man)
You’ve got to be a do-right-all-night man (man)
