Girl your voice is like an ocean deep in a woman's eyes
Girl your choice in a man is the thing that makes a woman cry
Worlds collide when the people hear you sing
No denying everybody knows the queen
The queen of soul
There is a woman in the room
In the fullness of her power
There is a woman at the tomb
And another in the tower
Girl your song is a tune every woman can understand
Love and longing in the search for a faithful man
Freedom and chains; those are the stories that you sing
All that remains of every man who would be king
To the Queen of Soul
There is a Woman in the room
In the fullness of her power
There is a woman set to bloom
And another on the hour
Oh there's a woman at the well talking to the King of Kings
And He didn't have to tell her much to tell her everything
All about her life, all about her love
All about the water she was so in need of
But you already know
Queen of soul
Girls let your voices ring like the shots heard around the world
Be wise in your choices and pave your paths with tiny pearls
Pray for your sisters; we all need support
Put your lovelight on your Misters
And remember what you learned in the courts
Of the queen of soul
