Show Some Respect

I made a resolution and I plan to keep my work
But I need you to make it work
You’ve got to read the message and understand what’s on my mind
Not to see would be a crime
And you can lose it anytime
We’ve got to show some respect
We’ve got to learn to protect
Don’t take it for granted, I know
That if you want to stay close
We’ve got to show some respect
But I believe in working, I believe in a little help
I’m not a light, unto myself without a thing of value
So why settle for second best
We don’t know what’s up ahead
And we can’t let ourselves forget
We’ve got to show some respect
We’ve got to learn to protect
Don’t take it for granted, I know
That if you want to stay close
We’ve got to show some respect
For the things that I love about you
From the woman that you see inside
Don’t let her walk out the door
Love follows everytime
A little respect for the things
that I love about you
and for the woman you see inside
We’ve got to show some respect
We’ve got to learn to protect
Don’t take it for granted, I know
That if you want to stay close
We’ve got to show some respect
We’ve got to show some respect
We’ve got to have it respect
We’ve got to have it respect
Respect
Show some respect
Respect
Show some respect
