I'm nearly sober and I can see the truth
I'm not immune to the sorrow that you put me through
All I ever wanted was a little more respect from youI used to love you, but now I feel abused
I was a fool to be blind to the things you do
All I ever wanted was a little more respect from youI'll never understand
The habits of a man out on the town
And where he hangs aroundNow you think it over, decide what to do
I couldn't fall for your story if I wanted to
All I ever wanted was a little more respect from youI tried to make you see
That you were losing me but everyday
You still went out to playNow I'll say for the last time, you had the chance
And I won't dance for you baby, like you want me to
All I ever wanted was a little more respect from youAll I ever wanted was a little more respect from you
All I ever wanted was a little more respect
