Respect Yourself Songtext
von OBK

Now if you don′t respect all those people that you run into
How in the world do you expect all those people to respect you?
Now when you don't give a heck about
The man with the Bible in his hand
You just get out the way and let the man do his thing
Well, now you′re the kind of man that wants everything his own way
Just take the sheet off your face, boy, 'cause it's a brand new day

Oh, respect yourself
Respect yourself
Now if you don′t respect yourself
Ain′t nobody gonna give a good cahoot
No no, hey hey, respect yourself
Yeah, respect yourself
Respect yourself


Oh, if you think that the world owes
You something just 'cause you′re here
You're goin′ out the world backwards
Like you did when you first came here
You keep a-talkin' ′bout the President, won't stop the air pollution
And put your hand on your mouth, that'll help the solution
You know you cuss around women when you don′t even know their names
And then you′re dumb enough to think it'll make you a big ol′ man

Oh, respect yourself
Hey, respect yourself
Now if you don't respect yourself
Ain′t nobody gonna give a good cahoot
No no, hey hey, respect yourself
Yeah, respect yourself
No, respect yourself
Yeah, respect yourself
Now if you don't respect yourself
Ain′t nobody gonna give a good cahoot
No no, hey hey, respect yourself
Respect yourself
Mmm, respect yourself
Yeah, respect yourself, oh
