If you disrespect everybody 
That you run into 
How in the world do you think 
Anybody sposed to respect you 
If you dont give a heck about 
The man with a bible in his hand 
Just get out the way and let 
The gentleman do his thing 

Youre the kind of gentleman 
That wants everything their way 
Take the sheet off yur face boy 
Its a brand new day 

Chorus 
Respect yourself 
Respect yourself 
If you dont respect yourself 
Aint nobody gonna give a good 
Ca-hoot na na na oh oh 
Respect yourself 

If youre walking around thinking 
That the world owes you something 
Cause youre here 
Youre going out the world backward 
Like you did when you first came here 
Keep talking about the president 
Wont stop air pollution 
Put your hand over your mouth 
When you cough 
Thatll help the solution 

You cuss around women folk 
You dont even know their name 
Then youre dumb enough to think 
That it makes you a big ol man 

Chorus
Respect yourself 
Respect yourself 
If you dont respect yourself 
Aint nobody gonna give a good 
Ca-hoot na na na oh oh 
Respect yourself
