What do I have to do to get mine? Look, we don't hand out 'Cause that ain't what we're all about With our breads, we don't have to beg If I treat you right, I can sleep at night There's no need to fear (No need to fear) All around the world, hear the people cry To make their message clear (Yeah), everybody Respect, everybody Respect, I can't get no respect (No, no) Respect (Give it up), everybody (Give it up, need some) Respect, I can't get no respect (No, no) Check it out, y'all Giving to the rhythm, respect is the topic Appliance to the science, the jewel as I drop it So-called companion standing as your best friends Do a 180 and stabbed in the back and then what? You never been so upset, yet just yet Don't let it stop the props you got to get Don't let it ground you, drown you, make you frown 'Cause life's a drum sound and you got to get down Words of a real man, here's the game plan Women ain't lemons to be squeezed and then eased into the can Who cooked for you? Cleaned you and weened you to feed you? Now you fellas are catching amnesia Beautiful dark brown skin and it's mine If you don't like my kin, just fine R-E-S-P-E-C-T, I need No time to fight, I got mouths to feed You can play ball and be small as an elf Respect from me? First, respect yourself Hey, if I roam the streets that you can't walk on It's wrong, shh, while the strong man talks on I'm in commanding and full demanding Thriving off peace, knowledge, wisdom, and understanding O'Jays and the Jazz are singing and rhyming it calm and correct See, I respect and love 'em and they respect and love me Respect, everybody Respect Respect O'Jays and the Jazz, Jazz and the O'Jays Respect Respect Respect R-E-S-P-E-C-T That's what you got to have from me, have respect Respect Respect Respect
