If you disrespect anybody that you run in to
How in the world do you think anybodys sposed to respect you
If you dont 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, its a brand new day
Respect yourself, respect yourself
If you dont respect yourself
Aint nobody gonna give a good cahoot, na na na na
Respect yourself, respect yourself
If youre walking round thinkn that the world owes you something cause
Youre here you goin out the world backwards like you did when you
Put your hand on your mouth when you cough, thatll help the solution
Oh, you cuss around women and you dont even know their names and you
Dumb enough to think thatll make you a big ol man
