Oh yeah, well...
What you want, baby, I got it
What you need, you know I got it
All I'm asking for
Is just a little respect when I get home
Yeah, when I get home
Yeah yeah

You can do me wrong while I'm gone
You can do me wrong if you want
I ain't gonna do you wrong 'cause I don't wanna
All I'm asking for
Is just a little respect when I get home
When I get home, yeah, oh yeah

I'm about to give you all of my money
But all I'm asking in return, honey
Is to give me my respect when I get home
Oh yeah, got to have respect

Yeah yeah yeah, give it to me
Oh baby, you know I need it

Ooh, your kiss is sweeter than honey, baby
But guess what, so is all my money
All I want you to do for me
Is give it up when I get home
Yeah baby, a little respect, darlin'
[Harmonica solo]

Hey, little respect, darlin'
What I want, yeah, I really need it now
Give it up to me, 'cause I got to have it, baby
Really, really need it, oh yeah
When I get home, I really need it
In the morning, in the evening
Come on, please, please Stevie
Oh yeah, baby love
Just a little respect when I get home
