A Little Respect

I tried to discover a little something to make me sweeter
Oh baby, refrain from breaking my heart
I'm so in love with you, I'll be forever blue
That you give me no reason, you know you're making me work so hard
That you give me no, that you give me no
That you give me no, that you give me no
Soul

I hear you calling
Oh baby, please (give a little respect to me)
Give a little respect to me

And if I should falter, would you open your arms out to me?
We can make love not war, and live with peace in our hearts
I'm so in love with you, I'll be forever blue
What religion or reason could drive a man to forsake his lover
Don't you tell me no, don't you tell me no
Don't you tell me no, don't you tell me no
Soul

I hear you calling
Oh baby, please (give a little respect to me)
Give a little respect to me

I'm so in love with you, I'll be forever blue
That you give me no reason, you know, you're making me work so hard
That you give me no, that you give me no
That you give me no, that you give me no
Soul

I hear you calling
Oh baby, please (give a little respect to me)
Give a little respect to me

I hear you calling
Oh baby, please (give a little respect to me)
Give a little respect to me
