Respect Yourself

if you disrespect anybody that you run in to

how in the world do you think anybody's s'posed to respect you

if you don't give a heck 'bout the man with the bible in his hand

just get out the way, and let the gentleman do his thing

you the kind of gentleman that want everything your way

take the sheet off your face, boy, it's a brand new day

respect yourself, respect yourself

if you don't respect yourself

ain't nobody gonna give a good cahoot, na na na na

respect yourself, respect yourself

if you're walking 'round think'n that the world owes you something cause

you're here you goin' out the world backwards like you did when you

first come here keep talkin' bout the president, won't stop air pollution

put your hand on your mouth when you cough, that'll help the solution

oh, you cuss around women and you don't even know their names then you're

dumb enough to think that'll make you a big ol man
