So you sayin' that you're down with me

So let's check the degree

Is what I'm hearin' something new to me?

Just an impression on what you need

Carry yourself in a gentleman way

So far you're good to go

And now I find myself at your place



CHORUS:

So you're sayin' that you're down with me

Respect my virtue

So you wanna spend some time with me

Respect my virtue

I'm not the one to teach, cause baby, I please

So take some time to get to know me better

And if you wanna be down with me, respect my virtue

Respect my virtue



You say you're living large, so am I

But I don't see no signs

Mack daddies come a dime-a-dozen buggin'

And so they try to find

The combination to my heart and mind

The stimulation kind

The stimulation is easy to do

After, where do I stand with you?

(I never knew ya!)

Cause "C" ain't goin' out like that guaranteed

Not before me need, you see

A new jack move in a woman's plan,

If you really want a woman,

Find the time to be a man



CHORUS



I need a man, a man with backbone

You know what, baby?

If you wanted to spend some time with me,

You should have respected my virtue

You know what I'm sayin'
