What you want, honey, you got it
And what you need, baby, you got it
All I'm askin' is for a little respect when I come home
Hey, now, hey, hey, hey, yeah, now

Do me wrong, honey, if you wanna
You can do me wrong, honey, while I'm gone
But all I'm askin' is for a little respect when I come home
Ooh, yeah, now, hey, hey, hey, yeah, now

Hey, little girl, you're so sweeter than honey
And I'm about to just give you all my money
But all I'm askin', hey
Is a little respect when I come home
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, now

Hey, little girl, you are sweeter than honey
And I'm about to give you all my money
But all I want you to do
It's to give me a little respect when I get home
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, now

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

Give it, give it
Give it, give it
Give it, give it
Give it, give it

Give it to me
Everything I need
Give it to me, baby
Everything I want
