[Verse 1]
BIf you disrespect anybody that you run in to
BHow in the world do you think anybody's s'posed to respect you
BIf you don't give a heck 'bout the man with the bible in his hand
BJust get out the way, and let the gentleman do his thing
BYou the kind of gentleman that want everything your way
BTake the sheet off your face, boy, it's a brand new day

[Verse 2]
BIf you're walking 'round think'n that the world owes you something cause
