Its Just A Matter Of Respect Poem by Dorsey Baker

Baby you've got to
respect yourself
before
you can
respect anybody else
don't wear
them daisy dukes
don't wear
that short mini skirt
if you don't
carry yourself like a lady
your reputation
could truly be hurt
baby you've got to
respect yourself
before you can
respect anybody else
don't let the street
take your mind
you need positive thinking
not the ghetto kind
nobody can help you
unless you let them
these words of wisdom
don't forget them
Baby you've got to
respect yourself
before you can
respect anybody else!
