[Bm]
[D] [A] [Bm] [A]
[Bm] [B]
[C#m] [D] [A]
Sweeter than apple pie, [Bm] more precious than gold.
[C#]
I'm talking about [F#m] you lady.
[D]
[A] [C#]
Oh, you know, you're the woman of [Bm] my dreams [E]
and my whole world.
[A]
You see how heaven ain't so [Bm] far away.
[C#]
It's right there [F#m] where you lay.
[D]
And look at me, [A] I can go there.
[C#]
Each and [Bm] every day.
[E]
And my whole world [A] is you.
I want to say this one more time.
[D]
Some women out there are [A] so confused.
[C#] They don't know who in the [F#m] world they are.
[D]
But you got it all [A] together.
[C#] You know just who [Bm] you are.
[D]
[A] Best of all is that [E] you're mine.
You're my super star.
[A] You're the best I've ever been.
[Bm] [C#]
Another woman in the world.
[F#m] You for me.
[D]
I'm talking about [A] you lady.
Oh, [C#] you're the woman of [Bm] my dreams.
[E] And lady. Lady.
[A]
I think I'll say it one more time.
[E] Lady.
[A]
[F#m] My whole [A] world is you.
[N]
How you doing?
I'm fine.
I'm good.
I figured you'd think about it all day.
I'm going to tell you what you said about me when I came to the show.
Chicken father pie.
I didn't say [F] that.
Trish said it.
Nice to see you back on the charts again.
I was just trying to think back to when we first met.
[C#] That was too [G] far back for us to talk about.
[G#] But what I do think is that it's interesting
that not only the fact that you're sort of a legend
but you've worked with [F#] quite a few legends.
Yes, I have.
I've had the pleasure of knowing a lot of guys.
[G#] From Jackie Wilson to Sam Cooke to great Book Benton.
Just going down the line.
Great Marvin Gaye and all the guys I've had a chance to.
When you were a young fella hanging out with Sam Cooke.
When you were younger hanging out with guys like Sam Cooke and Lou Rawls.
Some of the more [G#] established people like James Brown and Jackie Wilson.
How did it feel to you to be around these people?
I always felt good to be around them because I felt like I was around the best.
I could only learn from guys like that.
They were kind of like my big brothers.
Guys who would say, hey man, you can do it.
Your time will come.
[N] What experience or what person or individual that you met
in your early years as an entertainer do you think inspired you most?
I think Sam probably.
I came up through the ranks with Soulsters
after Sam had gone from Soulsters and I replaced him as lead singer.
I think I probably had a lot of inspiration from him I'm sure.
I heard you hit a couple of Sam Cooke licks.
Yeah, well anytime you hear about Sam Cooke.
When you sing with the Soulsters, it's a certain sound that you have to have.
It just kind of gets born in you.
I think it's still there.
No one does it better than Johnny Taylor.
Thank you very much.
