Show Some Respect (2015 Remaster)

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

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

Well, I believe in working, but I believe in a little help
'Cause I'm not a light unto myself
We got a thing of value, why settle for second best
We don't know what's up ahead
And we can't let ourselves forget

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

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

A little respect for the things that I love about ya
For the woman you see inside

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

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

Got to, got to show some respect
Got to, got to show some respect
Got to, got to have it, got to, got to have it
Got to, got to hold it, got to, got to hold it, oh

(Respect)
Got to, got to hold some respect
Ooh, hold on (respect)
(Respect)
Hold on (respect)
(Respect)
(Respect)
