Biography

American rock singer, actress and author, with a powerful blues-soaked voice, often referred to as 'The Queen Of Rock 'n' Roll', born 26th November 1939, Brownsville, Tennessee, USA, died 24th May 2023, Küsnacht, Switzerland. Became a citizen of Switzerland and relinquished American citizenship in 2013. Turner began her successful career with hits like "River Deep, Mountain High" alongside husband [a=Ike Turner] in the 1960s, from whom she separated after years of abuse, as she reported in her autobiography "I, Tina". A&M man [a192111] is credited for relaunching her career in the 1980s. Singles such as "What's Love Got to Do with It" and the album "Private Dancer" put her firmly back into the mainstream, along with roles as 'The Acid Queen' in "Tommy" and 'Aunt Entity' in the film "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome". In 2008, Turner came out of semi-retirement and embarked on her "Tina!: 50th Anniversary Tour" - one of the largest ticket-sales tours of that year. 'Rolling Stone' magazine has hailed her as "One of the greatest singers of all time", reaching unprecedented heights in stadium-filling Rock.

LYRICS

(Terry Britten & Graham Lyle)
Tell me lawyer what to do
I think I'm falling in love with you
Defend me, from the way I feel
Won't you give me some advice
On how to handle my private life
I'm sure that we can make a deal
I confess I'm a fool for men with a clever mind
But your intellect ain't no match
For this heart of mine

[Chorus:]
All I want is a little reaction
Just enough to tip the scales
I'm just using my female attraction
On a typical male, on a typical male

Your sense of justice I'll embrace
But your defense don't help my case
I'm deep in trouble with the law
Something about authority
Seems to bring out the bad in me
Hey lawyer, gotta catch me when I fall
Oh they say that you match your wits with the best of them
But I know when I'm close you're just like the rest of them

[Chorus]

So put your books aside
Loosen off the suit and tie
Open up your heart and let me in
Open up your heart and let me in

[Chorus]
