Lyrics

If you disrespect everybody that you run into
How in the world do you think anybody 'sposed to respect you?
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 thing
You're the kind of gentleman who wants 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 toot, oh
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
If you're walking around thinking that the word owes you
Something 'cause you're here
You're going out the world backwards like you did when you first come here
Keep talking about the president won't stop air pollution
Put your hand over your mouth when you cough, that'll help the solution
Well you cuss around women and you don't even know their names
Then you're dumb enough to think that it make you a big ol' man
Respect yourself
Oh respect yourself
If you don't respect yourself
Ain't nobody gonna give a good toot, oh
Respect yourself
Man, respect yourself
Respect yourself
Yeah, respect yourself
If the world it's treating you bad (respect yourself)
You heard the woman (respect yourself)
If life is treating you cold (respect yourself)
Yeah respect yourself (respect yourself)
If you got a pain in your heart (respect yourself)
Don't let it bring you down (respect yourself)
Respect yourself, yeah! (Respect yourself)
Even when you are down girl
Respect yourself (respect yourself) oh
Oh respect yourself, yeah (babe)
Respect yourself (respect yourself)
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Still you got to respect yourself
Respect yourself (ay, yeah)
Respect yourself
Oh, respect yourself (respect yourself)
Oh, oh, oh-oh, woah (respect yourself)
Ah! Come on, come on
Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Oh respect yourself, oh respect yourself!
