Mack Rice - Respect Yourself 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 a 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 Ca-hoot na na na oh oh Respect yourself If you're walking around thinking That the world owes you something 'Cause you're here You're going out the world backwards Like you did when you first came 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 You cuss around women folk You don't even know their name 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 Ca-hoot na na na oh oh Respect yourself Respect yourself Respect yourself If you dont respect yourself Ain't nobody gonna give a good Ca-hoot na na na oh oh Respect yourself
