Der Songtext "Respect Yourself" von Robert Palmer trägt eine wichtige Botschaft: Respektiere dich selbst, wenn du möchte...

If you disrespect anybody
That you running into.
How in the world do you
Think anybody's suppose respect you.

If you don't give heck about the man
With the bible in his hand. (yah)
Just get out the way and let the
Gentleman do his things.

Your the kind of gentleman
That wants everything your way. (yeah)
Take the sheet off your face boy
It's a brand new day.

Respect yourself!
Respect yourself!
If you don't respect yourself
Ain't nobody gonna give a good
Ca-hoot na na na oh oh.
Respect yourself!
Respect yourself!

If you walking around thinking
That the world owes you something
Cause you're here. (aah)
You're going out the world backward
Like you did when you first came here.(yeah)

Keep'n talk about the president
Won't stop air pollution.
Put your hand over your mouth
When you cough
That help'll the solution.

Oh, you cuss around women folk
And don't even know their names.(oh)
Then you're dumb enough to think
That'll make you a big ol' man. (yeah)

Respect yourself!
Respect yourself!
If you don't respect yourself
Ain't nobody gonna give a good
Ca-hoot na na na oh oh.
Respect yourself!
Respect yourself!
