Ray Charles was the stage name of Ray Charles Robinson (September 23, 1930 - June 10, 2004). He was a pioneering American pianist and soulmusician who helped shape the sound of rhythm and blues and brought a soulful sound to everything from country music to pop standards to a now-iconic rendition of "America the Beautiful." Frank Sinatracalled him "the only genius in the business." In 2003, he headlined the White House Correspondents Dinner in Wash., DC, at which President and Mrs. Bush, Colin Powell and Condoleeza Rice, were in attendance. Astonishingly, he also performed at the request of the previous seven American presidents. During his life he received eight honorary doctorates, the last from Dillard University in New Orleans in 2003.

Don't You Know Lyrics
Ray Charles
Woooh, well, don't you know, baby
Child, don't you know baby
Oww, don't you know baby
Little girl, little girl, don't you know
Please listen to me baby
Girl, I'm in love with you so
Turn your lamp down low
I said turn your lamp down low
Wooo, turn it down
Please turn your lamp down low
Come on baby
Girl I'm in love with you so
Now I know I've been away
For such a long time
But now baby
I can't get you off of my mind
So come on, please baby come on
Come on, come on
Love your daddy all night long
Now if you love me
Like I love you
We can do all the things that we
Used to do
So come on, Oww, baby come on
Please baby come on
Love your daddy all night long
( SOLO - piano )
Say, have you heard baby
Ray Charles is in town
Let's mess around till the midnight hour
See what he's puttin down
Come on
Please baby, come on, child
Oh lord, baby
Come on, all night long
Turn your lamp down low
Cause I love you so
Baby please come on
Love your daddy all night long
You hear me talkin, baby
Baby please come on
