Stand up for respect
Trudy Elcome 1979 (United States)
I'm trying to keep my cool, messing with these fools. Someone demanding Respect, aiming to put us in check. But you see, we don't get pushed around, especially not by these clowns. We all play, some all day. I'm just hoping we all pray. Giving thanks for blessings received, just believe I never regret standing up for what's right any night. For those who claim to be polite, And don't know RESPECT ... You have got to give it to receive it. (RESPECT)
