Respect Lyrics

[verse 1]
What you want
Baby I got it, mmm
What you need, you know I got it
All I'm asking, is for a little respect when you get home
Hey baby, when you get home
Just a little bit, mista

[verse 2]
I ain't gonna do you wrong, while your gone
I ain't gonna do you wrong, cause I don't wanna
And all I want you do for me
Is give it to me when you get home, alright now
When you get home, just a little bit mista

[Chorus]
R-E-S-P-E-C-T, find out what it means to me
R-E-S-P-E-C-T, take care TCB

[Bridge]
No, a little respect
No, a little respect
Gonna say it one more time

[Chorus]
[Outro]
No, yeah
A little respect

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • 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 [?]
