I'm Gonna Give You Respect Songtext

von Marvin Gaye

I don't wanna hear no trouble talk.
People tellin' me, what they seem to do.
Girl! we got an understanding and i don't wanna ruin it.
If i wanna find something wrong, i'm gon' catch ya doin' it.

You got what i need! babe. (don't wanna lose ya)
I don't wanna lose you. (don't wanna, don't wanna, don't wanna, don't wanna lose you)
So, i'm gonna give you respect. (give you respect)
And i want to protect. (want to protect)
Our love. (this love of ours)

I'm gonna act so naive.
When people tell me, you're gon' deceive me.
You're the only one whose brought me peace and joy.
What we share, lord knows, i ain't about to destroy.

Ohh, baby. (shucka, shucka now)
I don't wanna lose you. (don't wanna, don't wanna, don't wanna, don't wanna lose you)
So, i'm gonna give you respect.
And i want to protect. (want to protect)
Our love. (this love of ours)

Ohhh! (shucka, shucka now)
I don't wanna lose you. (don't wanna, don't wanna, don't wanna, don't wanna lose you)
Woo! sugar!

You possess all the things i've been searching for.
You're the only one i worship, and adore.
What you got, baby, so many fellas are tryin' to find. (i want you girl)
Not gonna fix it so some other guy can beat my time.

(shucka, shucka now)
I don't wanna lose you. (don't wanna, don't wanna, don't wanna, don't wanna lose you)
So, i'm gonna give you respect. (give you respect)
And i want to protect. (want to protect)
Our love. (this love of ours, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Ohh-ho-ho-hoo! hoo-hoo! (give you respect. wanna protect.)
Little girl. (this love of ours, yeah, yeah)
Woooo! (shucka, shucka now)
I don't wanna lose you. (don't wanna, don't wanna, don't wanna, don't wanna lose you)
So, i'm gonna give you respect. (give you respect)
And i want to protect. (want to protect)
Our love. (this love of ours, baby)
You deserve it baby. (give you respect. wanna protect.)
This love of ours. (this love of ours)
