THE REAL ROXANNE - Respect lyrics

rate me

Just a little bit [repeated]

(Tell ya, I kinda like her, you know)

I'm the fox that cold rocks, and I'm comin correct

And what I want is a little respect

Now if I don't get it, I'ma have to take it

And prove to y'all that I can make it

All the way, and not slightly

For those of you who took me lightly

I'ma have to put you all in check

And maybe then you'll show me a little respect

Ooh

Just a little bit [repeated]

(Tell ya, I kinda like her, you know)

(I don't know, with kids today it's different)

You wanna riff, but you can't base

You're captivated by a smile on a pretty face

And of course breath-takin

I proceed goin wild, if I'm not mistaken

I am woman, watch me roar

I don't run my rhymes, they pour

And I don't be takin shorts, I wear em

A rapper diss me, huh, I dare him

Cause if he does that, then he'll be makin

A big mistake, cause I start breakin

And you don't want me to break

When the gold around your neck is fake!

A 24-carat persona, but I'm not Madonna

You come out your neck, and I'ma treat you like your mama

You don't like what I'm sayin, then you can step

Instead give a lady like me a little respect

Ooh

Just a little bit [repeated]

(Tell ya, I kinda like her, you know)

(I don't know, with kids today it's different)

Ooh

Just a little bit

I can't stop, cause I'm hotter than hot

Bu twhen I see another rapper, I gots

To get wicked and kick it, and put em in check

And let em know the Double R's in effect

And since you're really captivated, super sexy, so seducin

I do the rap, Howie Tee does the producin

I need a scratch, Howie Tee, are you ready?

(Sure) Huh - let's do this

(Tell ya, I kinda like her, you know)

(I don't know, with kids today it's different)

How can you be hotter than July

I will tell you why, your guy

He wants to be my slave

I put him on a short leash, so he can behave

And you cover your face with a paperbag

Cause I'm the kinda girl your man wish he had

And you remind me of the Bride of Frankenstein

Your hair so short that I can read what's on your mind

And since we're on the topic of hair, let me mention

To all the girls that wear extensions

You gotta be like me, and that's legit

And when I put on my jeans, they fit

Cause I'm not lackin, in the back, and

I don't look like I be crackin

Up, Cause my body ain't flat

But yours kinda looks like that

And a lady like me cannot be dismissed

Leave the radio alone, cause you cannot adjust this

And if my tape ain't in the box, then press eject

Just one of the ways you can show me a little respect!

Ooh

Just a little bit [repeated]

(Tell ya, I kinda like her, you know)

(I don't know, with kids today it's different)

Just a little bit

Just a little bit

Just a little bit

(I don't know, with kids today it's different)

(I tell ya, I kinda like her, ya know)

Just a little bit
