ohh whoa ohh....
    I respect a man raisin his kids all on his own
  I respect a man who makes sure he takes care of home
  you gotta respect a man with good judgement
  cuz I'll be damned if someones takin care of my kids
  and I respect a man who treats his woman like a queen
  I know you're not perfect you aint gotta be so mean
  no matter how strong she is for a woman
  a man should never attempt to lay his hands on her
    [BRIDGE:]
  There's more to life than what happens an your block
  just treat your women right and hold em at the top
  gotta raise these kids and teach em, never dont ya stop
  you aint no man to me if you let your family starve
    [CHORUS:]
  Got no respect for them dudes who hit they women and
  got no respect for the fools who leave they children and
  I just wanna take care of my family
  got no respect if you aint trying to do the right thing
    Got no respect for them dudes who hit they women and
  got no respect for the fools who leave they children and
  I just wanna take care of my family
  got no respect if you aint trying to do the right thing
    I respect the type of girl that tries to love a man
  with many flaws and broken laws but still he stands
  the kinda girl who turns a boy into a man
  the kinda girl who turns a flop into a plan
  no respect for those who walk through life just askin you
  what you can do for them but still they hate on you
  it dont take no man to make that baby
  but yes it takes a man to raise that baby

    Fellas we gotta make a change
  in the way that we treat our women and our children yes we do
  hope thats there's a better day
  put your hands to the sky
  if you want a change, need a change
  see all that you know it dont really mean a thing
  if you cant show some love to the ones connected by your blood
  cuz in the end all that matters is your wife and your kids
