I have to give it up for Dusty this morning as I was rocked down memory lane

Don't get me wrong. I like Dusty's version of the song, but her effort is nothing compared to what Aretha did with the song. You really feel Re's transcendental struggle with temptation.

Being good isn't always easy
no matter how hard I try
when he started sweet-talkin' to me
when he started sweet-talkin' to me
he'd kiss tell me "Everything is all right"
(sock it to me)
baby baby "Everything is all right"
(oh sock it to me)
can I sneak away again tonight?

the only one who could ever reach me
was the son of a preacher man
the only boy who could ever teach me
was the son of a preacher man
yes he was, ye, he was, ooh, he was
