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 that wants everything their 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 hoot, na- na- na
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 came her
You keep talking about the president won´t stop air pollution
Put your hand over your mouth when you cough that´ll help the solution
You cuss around women and you don´t even know their names
Then You´re dumb enough to think that it makes you a big ol´ man

Respect yourself
Respect yourself
If you don´t respect yourself
Ain´t nobody gonna give a good hoot, na- na- na
Respect yourself
Respect yourself

Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
