[(Just a little bit)] Mister

I ain′t gonna do you wrong
While you're gone
Ain't gonna do you wrong
[(Ooh)] ′Cause I don′t wanna
[(Ooh)] All I'm askin′
[(Ooh)] Is for a little respect when you come home
[(Just a little bit)] Baby
[(Just a little bit)] When you get home
[(Just a little bit)] Yeah


I'm about to give you
All of my money
And all I′m askin'
In return, honey
Is to give me my propers
When you get home
[(Just a, just a, just a, just a)] Yeah, baby
[(Just a, just a, just a, just a)] When you get home
[(Just a little bit)] Yeah

Ooh, your kisses
[(Ooh)] Sweeter than honey

Take care, T-C-B


Oh
A little respect
Whoa, yeah
[(Just a little bit)] A little respect
[(Just a little bit)] I get tired
[(Just a little bit)] I keep on tryin′
[(Just a little bit)] You're runnin' out of fools
[(Just a little bit)] And I ain′t lyin′

Respect when you come home
Or you just might walk in
And find out I'm gone
