Trust in me in all you do
Have the faith I have in you
Love will see us through
If only you trust in me
Why don't you, you trust me
Come to me when things go wrong
Cling to me Daddy, oh yeah, and I'll be strong
We can get along, we can get along
Oh, if only you trust in me
While there's a moon, a moon on high
While there are birds, birds to fly
While there is you, you and I
I can be sure that I love you
Oh, stand beside me, stand beside me all the while
Come on Daddy, face the future, why don't you smile
Trust in me and I'll be worthy of you
Oh yeah, yeah, why don't you, you trust in me in all you do
And have the faith I, I have in you
Oh, and love will see us through
If only you trust in me
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Why don't you, you come to me when things go wrong
Cling to me and, whoa, and I'll be strong
We can get along, we can get along
Oh, if only you trust in me
Yeah, yeah
Etta James (Los Angeles, January 25, 1938 – Riverside, January 20, 2012) was an American singer of blues, soul, and rhythm and blues. Considered one of the most powerful and influential voices in American music history, Etta James left an indelible mark on the musical landscape of the 20th century. Born to an African-American mother and an Italian father, she began singing gospel as a child. Her career developed in the 1950s with her meeting with Johnny Otis, who introduced her to the world of blues and rhythm and blues music. Her vocal style, characterized by a powerful raspy voice and an emotionally charged interpretation, earned her international success. Among her most famous songs are "At Last", "I'd Rather Go Blind" and "Tell Mama". Throughout her long career, she has collaborated with prominent artists such as Ray Charles and B.B. King. Etta James was awarded numerous awards, including the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 1993.
