Respect [Dvd]

What you want

Honey you've got it

And what you need

Baby you've got it



All I'm asking

Is for a little respect when I come home



Do me wrong

Honey if you wanna

You can do me wrong

Honey while I am gone



But all I'm asking for

Is for a little respect when I come home



Hey little girl, you're so sweeter than honey

And I am about to just give you all my money



All I'm asking for

Is a little respect when I come home



Hey little girl, you're sweeter than honey

And I am about to give you all my money



But all I want you to do

Just give it, give it

Respect when I come home



Respect is what I want

Respect is what I need

Respect is what I want

Respect is what I need



Got to, got to have it

Got to, got to have it

Gotta, got to have it

Gotta, got to have it
