Respect Yourself

[Intro]
Come on, come on

[Chorus]
Respect yourself (Oh)
Respect yourself (Oh yeah)
(You need to) Respect yourself
(Oh) Respect yourself
Respect yourself (Oh yeah)

[Verse 1]
If you disrespect everybody that
Your running to (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
How in the world do you
Think anybody's gonna respect you (Yeah, oh, oh)
If you don't give a heck about the man
With the bible in his hand
Just get out the way and let the
Gentleman do his things (Ah, ah)
Your the kind of gentleman that wants everything
Your way (Huh, oh yeah)
Take the sheet off your face boy (Yeah)
It's a brand new day

[Chorus]
Respect yourself (Oh, Lord)
Respect yourself (Respect yourself)
(You need to) Respect yourself (Oh, Lord)
Respect yourself
Respect yourself (Oh yeah)

[Verse 2]
Oh, you walk around thinking
That the world owes you something
'Cause you're here (Yeah)
You're going out the world backwards like
You did when you first come here
(Say well) Well
You talk about the president
Won't stop the air pollution
(Won't stop) No, no, no
Just put your hand on your mouth when you cough
That'll help the solution (yeah)
Oh, you cuss around women folk
And don't even know their name
(You don't know) You don't even know their name
And dumb enough to think that'll
A make you a bigger man (Big-o-man)

[Chorus]
Respect yourself (Oh)
Respect yourself (Oh yeah)
(You need to) Respect yourself
(Oh) Respect yourself
Respect yourself (Oh yeah)

[Bridge]
If you don't respect yourself
Then ain't nobody gonna give a good cahoot

[Chorus]
Respect yourself (Oh)
Respect yourself (Respect yourself)
(You need to) Respect yourself
(Oh) Respect yourself
Respect yourself (Oh yeah)
Respect yourself (Respect yourself)
(You need to) Respect yourself
Respect yourself
(You need to) Respect yourself
Respect yourself
