Respect - Aretha Franklin

(oo) What you want

Hey baby (just a little bit) when you get home

I ain't gonna do you wrong while you're gone 

Ain't gonna do you wrong (oo) 'cause I don't wanna (oo) 

All I'm askin' (oo) 

Is for a little respect when you come home (just a little bit) 

Baby (just a little bit) when you get home (just a little bit) 

Yeah (just a little bit) 

I'm about to give you all of my money 

And all I'm askin' in return, honey 

Is to give me my profits 

When you get home (just a, just a, just a, just a) 

Yeah baby (just a, just a, just a, just a) 

When you get home (just a little bit) 

Yeah (just a little bit) 

------ instrumental break ------ 

Ooo, your kisses (oo) 

Sweeter than honey (oo) 

And guess what? (oo) 

So is my money (oo) 

All I want you to do (oo) for me 

Is give it to me when you get home (re, re, re ,re) 

Yeah baby (re, re, re ,re) 

Whip it to me (respect, just a little bit) 

When you get home, now (just a little bit)

Whoa, babe (just a little bit) 

A little respect (just a little bit) 

I get tired (just a little bit) 

Keep on tryin' (just a little bit) 

You're runnin' out of foolin' (just a little bit) 

And I ain't lyin' (just a little bit)

When you come home (re, re, re ,re) 

Or you might walk in (respect, just a little bit) 

And find out I'm gone (just a little bit) 

I got to have (just a little bit) 

A little respect (just a little bit)
