Well, I remember when I met you baby   Back a long time ago   Well, you were telling me you loved me   I bet you just didn't know   Well, now you say   That you've got news for me   Well, I know it's the hurting kind   Well, I know you're gonna tell me   Baby, you can never see   And you keep on screaming at me   As I'm going out the door      Chorus:   Respect me in the morning   Don't love you no more   Well, I've been coming here   Loving you baby   Seven long nights a week   But every time I leave you   You're right back out on the streets   And you been saying you've been true to me   My friends they say   You're telling me lies   And if you don't straighten up your act   I think I'm gonna blacken your eyes   And you keep screaming at me   As I'm walking out the door.      Well, I remember whe I met you baby   Back a long time ago   You were telling me you loved me   How much you just didn't know   But now you say you got news for me   Well, I know it's a hurting kind   I know you're gonna tell me   Baby, you can never be mine   And you keep on screaming at me   As I'm going out the door      Chorus:   Oh, respect me in your morning   I don't want 'round it no more   And you keep on screaming at me   As I'm going out the door   Respect me in the morning   Or don't come 'round here no more
