We don't have to speak
We don't have to shake no hands
And your eyes ain't gotta flirt my way
You don't have to use my name in your
conversation
You don't have to agree

And you don't have to like me
And it's alright with me
But as long as I'm around
You better make sure you respect
me
You ain't gotta like me
It's alright with me
But as long as I'm around
You better make sure you respect
me

You don't have to smile
You don't have to like my style
I don't care what you think
Just as long as you know
I ain't no game
So don't play with me
Just watch what you say
When you talkin to me
Cuz I don't wanna make out the sign
and have to say
You don't have to use my name in your
conversation
You don't have to agree
And you don't have to like me
And it's alright with me
But as long as I'm around
You better make sure you respect
me
You ain't gotta like me
It's alright with me
But as long as I'm around
You better make sure you respect
me

You don't have to like me
And it's alright with me
But as long as I'm around
You better respect me
You ain't gotta like me-it's alright
But as long as I'm around
You better make sure you respect me

And you don't have to like me
And it's alright with me
But as long as I'm around
You better make sure you respect
me
You ain't gotta like me
It's alright with me
But as long as I'm around
You better make sure you respect
me

You don't have to like me
And it's alright with me
But as long as I'm around
You better respect me
You ain't gotta like me-it's alright
But as long as I'm around
You better make sure you respect me

You don't have to like me
And its alright with me
As long as I'm around you better make
sure you respect me
