Testo Respect Yourself - The Staple Singers
Testo della canzone Respect Yourself (The Staple Singers), tratta dall'album Stax Chartbusters, Vol. 1
If you disrespect anybody that you run in to
How in the world do you think anybody's supposed to respect you?
If you don't give a heck about the man with the Bible in his hand, y'all
Just get out the way and let the gentle man do his thing
You the kind of gentleman that want everything your way, yeah
Take the sheet off your face, boy, it's a brand-new day
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
If you don't respect yourself
Ain't nobody gonna give a good cahoot, na-na-na-na, oh-oh
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
If you're walking 'round, thinkin' that the world
Owe you something 'cause you're here, yeah
You're goin' out the world backwards
Like you did when you first come here, yeah
Keep talkin' 'bout the president won't stop air pollution
Put your hand on your mouth
When you cough, that'll help the solution
Oh, you cuss around women folk
And you don't even know their names, y'all
And you're dumb enough to think
That'll make you a big ol' man, yeah
Respect yourself, yeah
Respect yourself
If you don't respect yourself
Ain't nobody gonna give a good cahoot, na-na-na-na
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself, yeah, yeah
Respect yourself, you, you
