[Verse 1]
If you disrespect everybody that you run into
How in the world do you expect anybody's supposed to respect you
If you don't give a damn about the man with the bible in his hands
Let's get out the way and let the gentleman do his thing
[Chorus 1]
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
If you don't respect yourself
Ain't nobody gonna give a good god damn, na na na na na na na
[Verse 2]
If you're walk around thinkin' that the world owes you somethin' 'cause you're here
You're goin' out the world backwards like you did when you first came here
Oh, you curse around women but you don't even know their names
Then you're dumb enough to think it'll make you a big ol' man
[Chorus 2]
Hey, respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Oh and you don't respect yourself
Ain't nobody gonna give a good god damn, na na na na na na na
[Chorus 3]
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Oh, if you don't respect yourself
Ain't nobody give a good cahoot
