Show Some Respect - Live

I made a resolution and I plan to keep my word
But I need you to make it work
You've gotta read the message and understand what's on my mind
Not to see would be a crime and we could lose it anytime

We've gotta show some respect
We've gotta learn to protect
Don't take it for granted, I know
That if you want to stay close
We've gotta show some respect

I believe in working, then I believe in a little help
I'm not a light unto myself
Without a thing of value, so settle for second best
We don't know what's up ahead
And we can't let ourselves forget

We've gotta show some respect
We've gotta learn to protect
Don't take it for granted, I know
That if you want to stay close
We've gotta show some respect

For the things that I love about you (respect)
From the woman that you see inside
Don't let it walk out the door
Love follows every time

I swear by the things I love about you
And the other woman she

We've gotta show some respect
We've gotta learn to protect
Don't take it for granted, I know
That if you want to stay close
We've gotta show some respect

To show some respect
We gotta have it (yeah, yeah)
Respect
We gotta have it
Respect (yeah, yeah) respect
Show some respect (yeah, yeah) respect
Respect show some respect
