Aaah Respect is what we need
Satisfaction guaranteed
I respect you, you respect me
A beautiful world this is gonna be
I respect you, you respect me
A beautiful world this is gonna be
Well, I don't cuss you, and you don't cuss me
We sit down we talk about it sensibly
You do your job and I'll do mine
Responsibility it is no crime
Everybody singing, Ahhh... Yeah
I respect you, Aaah... Yeah
You have your needs and I can truly see
But please respect a girl's morality
Go find your wife - leave mine alone
By the help of my God we make a beautiful home
I respect you, you respect me

A beautiful world this is gonna be
Everybody singing, Ahhh.... Yeah
I respect you, Aaah... Yeah
Good food for your body
You wash it with soap
You don't destroy it with the deadly dope
It makes no difference if you're black or white
We all must learn we got to do the thing right
I respect you, you respect me
A beautiful world this is gonna be
I respect you, you respect me
A beautiful world this is gonna be
Everybody singing, Ahhh.... Yeah
I respect you, Aaah... Yeah
I can't go around disrespecting you
Cause disrespecting you disrespects me to
I don't cuss you, and you don't cuss me
We sit down we talk about it sensibly
You have your needs I can truly see
But please respect a girl's morality
Food for your body, you wash it with soap
You don't destroy it with the deadly dope
It makes no difference if you're black or white
We all must learn we got to do the thing right
