Show Some Respect

(t. britten, s. shifrin)

Producer: terry britten

Album: private dancer (84)



I made a resolution and i plan to keep my work

But i need you to make it work

You've got to read the message, understand what's on my mind

Cause not to see would be a crime

And we could lose it anytime



We've got to show some respect

We've got to learn to protect

Don't take it for granted, i know

That if you want to stay close

We've got to show some respect



But i believe in working, then i believe in a little help

Cause i'm not a light unto myself

Without a thing of value, why settle for second best

We don't know what's up ahead

And we can't let ourselves forget



We've got to show some respect

We've got to learn to protect

Don't take it for granted, i know

That if you want to stay close

We've got to show some respect



For the things that i love about you

From the woman that you see inside

Don't let it walk out the door

Love follows everytime
