Aretha Franklin - Mister Spain Lyrics

I can feel your blackness
and your manhood, and your love
I can touch your whiteness
and your oranges, and your power

Spain (Spain)
Yes, Mister Spain (Spain)
They going to put a star beside your name
Yes they are, Mister Spain

I can speak your own language, if you listen, you will hear
I understand your crying, I understand your fear
And I know that you're lonely, yes, I do (yes, I do)
And I know what you're missing, baby, you do too

Mister Spain
No, don't do that, Mister Spain
Don't you put another needle in your vein, oh
Mister Spain, please

I can feel it raining on your secrets and your dreams
And I understand your reasons, and I know what you mean
Yes I do, yes I do, yes I do

Spain
Please, Mister Spain
Don't you let nobody's daughter feel your shame
(I love you, Mister Spain)
Your shame, your shame, Mister Spain
(I love you, Mister Spain, ooh, ooh)

(Spain, Spain, Spain)

I can feel your blackness, and your manhood, and your love
I can touch your whiteness, and your oranges, and your power
So let me hear your laughter, right away
You can turn around now, it's okay

Mister Spain
Ooh, Mister, Spain
They going to put a star beside your name
Laugh, laugh, Mister Spain
Laugh, Mister Spain
Whoa, laugh, Mister Spain
Laugh, Mister Spain
Laugh, laugh, laugh, laugh, laugh, laugh, oh! Mister Spain
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-oh oh-oh-oh-whoa
