(Ooh) What you want - (ooh) baby, I got.
(Ooh) What you need - (ooh) do you know, I got it!?
(Ooh) All I'm askin' -
(Ooh) Is for a little respect when [bad word] home!
(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 [bad word] home!
(Just a little bit) Baby!
(Just a little bit) When you get home,
(Just a little bit) Yeh!
(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 profits when you get home,
(Just'a just'a just'a just'a) Yeh, baby!
(Just'a just'a just'a just'a) When you get home!
(Just a little bit) Yeh!
(Just a little bit)

(Sax solo)

Ooh, your kisses (ooh) sweeter than honey,
(Ooh) And guess what? - (Ooh) So is my money!
(Ooh) All I want you (ooh) to do for me -
Is give it to me when you get home!
(Re-eh, re-eh, re-eh, re-eh) Yeh, baby!
(Re-eh, re-eh, re-eh, re-respect) Whip it to me!
(Just a little bit) When you get home! Now!
(Just a little bit)

R-E-S-P-E-C-T, find out what it means to me!
R-E-S-P-E-C-T, take care, T-C-B!

(Sock it to me, sock it to me,
Sock it to me, sock it to me) Ah-u, little respect!
(Sock it to me, sock it to me,
Sock it to me, sock it to me) Whou-oh-u-yeh,
(Just a little bit) Little respect!
(Just a little bit) I get tired
(Just a little bit) Keep on tryin'!
(Just a little bit) [bad word]  out of fool,
(Just a little bit) And I ain't lyin'!
(Just a little bit)
(Re-eh, re-eh, re-eh, re-eh) - 'spect when [bad word] home!
(Re-eh, re-eh, re-eh, re-respect) Or you might walk in
(Just a little bit) And find out I'm gone!
(Just a little bit) I got to have
(Just a little bit) little respect!
