美國靈魂樂女王［艾瑞莎富蘭克林］──深沉靈魂（Deep Soul）／放克──［Tighten Up Your Tie, Button Up Your Jacket (Make It Easy for the Door)／繫緊領帶，扣好外套（方便出門）］

Dont get too comfortable, my boy
Im expecting company
Dont you have somewhere else to go
Or do you just like to visit me?
You cant come around any time you please (uh, uh)
Just like you did before (uh, uh)
So tighten up your tie (tighten up)
Button up that jacket (button up)
And make it for the door (make it for the door)

Dont get too close to me, my boy
Im not playing around with you
Cant you leave well enough alone
Why cant you just realize were through?
I couldnt start again, oh no sir-ee (uh, uh)
I couldnt take it any more (uh, uh)
So tighten up your tie (tighten up)
Button up that jacket (button up)
And make it for the door (make it for the door)

Oh, the bell might ring any minute
And he just wouldnt understand
You had romance but you blew your chance
Tryin to play a double hand

You know that Im weak for you, my boy (auh bop, auh bop)
Oh, did you just come around to see (auh bop, auh bop)
If your sweet and tender charms (auh bop, auh bop)
Would still work out on me? (auh bop, auh bop)
Well even if you did (if you did)
You can still grab your hat (your hat)
Cause now I know the score (uh, uh, uh)
Tighten up your tie (tighten up)
Button up your jacket (button up)
And make it for the door (make it for the door)

Then if you just hear that make, make it for the door (tighten up your tie, uh, ah ah ah)
You gotta chunking some with that jacket (button up your jacket, uh, ah ah ah)
Oh, then button up that jacket skin (make it for the door, uh, ah ah ah)
Baby, and make it for the door (tighten up your tie)

１９６７年４月，２５歲的美國靈魂樂天后艾瑞莎．富蘭克林（Aretha Franklin）推出第六張大碟［Take It Like You Give It／接受它就像你給予它一樣］（Columbia Records發行）．

由於富蘭克林與哥倫比亞唱片公司的關係在１９６６年末惡化，

這張專輯是她在廠牌發行的最後一張全部收錄先前未發行歌曲的專輯。

製作群包括Bob Johnston, Bobby Scott, Clyde Otis, Robert Mersey，

Belford Hendricks編曲並指揮。

大碟未入榜．

唯一單曲是１９６６年推出的［Tighten Up Your Tie, Button Up Your Jacket (Make It Easy for the Door)／繫緊領帶，扣好外套（方便出門）］為首支單曲，由Billy Dawn Smith創作，

Robert Mersey製作成一首深沉靈魂（Deep Soul）／放克，

節奏緊湊，在粗獷有活力的節拍間，艾瑞莎以激情強勁的唱腔詮釋．

由於缺乏宣傳，［Tighten Up Your Tie, Button Up Your Jacket (Make It Easy for the Door)］並未入榜．
