(Ooh) What you want
(Ooh) Baby, I got it
(Ooh) What you need
(Ooh) Do you know I got it?

(Just a little bit) Hey, baby
(Just a little bit) When you get home
(Just a little bit) Mister
(Just a little bit)

I ain't gonna do you wrong
While you're gone
Ain't gonna do you wrong
(Ooh) 'Cause I don't wanna
(Ooh) All I'm askin'
(Ooh) Is for a little respect when you come home
(Just a little bit) Baby
(Just a little bit) When you get home
(Just a little bit) Yeah
(Just a little bit)

I'm about to give you
All of my money
And all I'm askin'
In return, honey
Is to give me my propers
When you get home
(Just a, just a, just a, just a) Yeah, baby
(Just a, just a, just a, just a) When you get home
(Just a little bit) Yeah

Ooh, your kisses
(Ooh) Sweeter than honey
(Ooh) And guess what?
(Ooh) So is my money
(Ooh) All I want you to do for me
(Ooh) Is give it to me when you get home

R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Take care, T-C-B

Oh

A little respect
(Sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me)
Whoa, yeah
(Just a little bit) A little respect
(Just a little bit) I get tired
(Just a little bit) I keep on tryin'
(Just a little bit) You're runnin' out of fools
(Just a little bit) And I ain't lyin'
(Just a little bit)
(Re, re, re, re)
Respect when you come home
(Re, re, re, re)
Or you just might walk in
(Respect, just a little bit)
And find out I'm gone
(Just a little bit)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
