If you disrespect everybody that you run into
Bm                            D               E            Bm D E 
How in the world do you think anybody 'sposed to respect you
Bm                                 D            E               Bm D E
If you don't give a heck about the man with the Bible in his hand
Bm                               D          E         Bm D E
Just get out the way and let the gentleman do his thing

You're the kind of gentleman that wants everything their own way
Bm                            D            E         Bm D E
Take the sheet off your face boy, it's a brand new day

If you're walking around thinking that the world owes you
                           Bm D E
Something cause you're here
Bm                                             D            E            Bm D E
You're going out the world backwards like you did when you first came here
Bm                                   D       E              Bm D E
You keep talking about the president won't stop air pollution

Put your hand over your mouth when you cough that'll help the solution
Bm                             D      E                 Bm D E
You cuss around women and you don't even know their names
Bm                                                   D   E
Then you're dumb enough to think that it makes you a big ol' man

[Chorus 2]
Bm                D
Respect yourself, na na na na na na
Bm                D

Bm                   D           E    Bm                       D E
Cos if the world is treating you bad, you gotta respect yourself
Bm                   D     Bm                            D E
And if you feel low down, you still gotta respect yourself
Bm                   D     Bm                       D E
When you're down and blue, you gotta respect yourself
Bm                    D         Bm                       D E
All the way down in your heart, you gotta respect yourself
