A Little Respect

I tried to discover a little something to make me sweeter
Oh, baby, refrain from breaking my heart
I’m so in love with you, I’ll be forever blue

Oh, that you give me no reason why you making me work so hard
That you give me no, that you give me no, that you give me no
That you give me no soul

I hear you calling, oh, baby, please
Give a little respect to me

And if I should falter would you open your arms out to me?
We can make love, not war and live at peace in our hearts
I’m so in love with you, I’ll be forever blue

Oh, what religion or reason drives a man to forsake his lone?
But don’t you tell me no, don’t you tell me no, don’t you tell me no
Don’t you tell me no soul

I hear you calling, oh, baby, please
Give a little respect to me

I’m so in love with you, I’ll be forever blue

Oh, that you give me no reason why you making me work so hard
That you give me no, that you give me no, that you give me no
That you give me no soul

I hear you calling, oh, baby, please
Give a little respect to me
