Respect Yourself

If you disrespect everybody
That you run into
How in the world do you think
Everybody's 'sposed to respect you?
If you don't give a heck
About the man with the Bible in his hand
Just get out of the way
And let the gentleman do his thing
You the kind of gentleman
Want everything your way
Take the sheet off your face boy
It's a brand new day
Respect yourself, respect yourself
'Cause if you don't respect yourself
Ain't nobody gonna give a good
Good hootenanny boy, respect yourself
If you're walking around thinking
That the world owes you something
'Cause you're here
You're going out the world backward
Like you did when you first came 'ere
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
Don't even know their name
Then you're dumb enough
To think it makes you a big ole man
Respect yourself, respect yourself
'Cause if you don't respect yourself
Ain't nobody gonna give a good
Good hootenanny boy, respect yourself
Respect yourself
