R-E-S-P-E-C-T, take care of T-C-B
some may hear the mondegreen T-C-P which confusingly leaves R-E-S-E meaning nothing.
The initials T-C-B most likely mean "Take Care of Business", which fits in with some of the other variations of Franklin's version including:
"Ooh, your kisses, sweeter than honey<br /> And guess what? So is my money"
which equates kisses as being on par with her earnings, for which she expects "propers" (aka props, or proper respect).

In German, the name Katzenelnbogen literally translates to "cat's elbow", which is arguably a later mondegreen.
