Respect Yourself

If you disrespect everybody
That you run into
How in the world do you think
Anybody's gonna respect you?
If you don't give a heck about the man
With the Bible in his hand
Then just get out the way
And let the gentleman do his thing

CHORUS:
You’re the kind of gentleman
That wants everything his way
Take the sheet off your face, boy
It's a brand new day

(CHORUS)

Respect yourself
If you don't respect yourself
Ain't nobody gonna give a good ga-hoo!

(CHORUS)

If you're walkin’ 'round thinkin’
That the world owes you somethin’
‘cause you're here
You’re goin' out the world backwards
Like you did when you first come in
Keep talkin’ ‘bout the president
Wanna stop air pollution
Put your hand on your mouth
When you cough, that'll help the solution

(CHORUS)

And you’re cursin’ around women
And you don't even know their name
And you’re dumb enough to think
That'll make you a big ole man
