Intro:

   (x2)

Verse 1:

               
 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,

Chorus 1:

                          
Res-pect, when I come home,
              
Hey, hey, hey!

Verse 2:

             
 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,

Chorus 2:

                          
Res-pect, when I come home,
        
Oh baby.

Bridge 1:

                 
 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;

Chorus 3:

                          
Res-pect, when I come home,
        
Oh baby.

Bridge 2:

                 
 Hey little girl, you're so sweeter than honey,
                        
 And I am about to just, give you all my money.

 But all I want you to do; just give it, give it.

Chorus 4:

                          
Res-pect, when I come home,
              
Hey, hey, hey!

Coda:

                                         
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.
                                      
Got to, got to have it, got to, got to have it.
