[Intro] I remember the old saying daddy used to say He'd say "Son, watch your back cuz misery loves company" I never understood what it meant 'Till this happened
She put you out with no place to go You call me up, and I came right on over Said you had a few problems You knew you were wrong Wanted to get yourself right So I let you stay at my home
When I started peepin' you makin' eyes at my boo Goin' out your way to be all up in her face Me and her would be in bed doin' what we do Then I dunno where, she'd ask me things I only told you
1 - Misery loves company I thought you were a friend to me But right is right And wrong is wrong So pack your bags Brother, you on your own (Step on step on step on) Get to steppin' brotha' You're on your own (Step on step on step on)
My man, my man, my brother, my homey yeah (Step on step on step on)
A lesson learned, but told long ago Keep enemies close, but friends even closer (Tell the truth) See happiness breeds envy Don't ever say the words "It'll never, never, never, never happen to me"
Oh cuz One day you'll close your eyes And then to your surprise You open them and see Somebody been all up in your cherry tree Then that'll be the day That you'll lose your mind Just spending time writing letters In a cell doing 20 to life
Repeat 1
Get to movin' homey Get to goin', boy You act like you don't know me Get your move on Oh no, no, no
It's a low down dirty shame When your so-called friends start playin' games They know how to get to you All inside, all up in your business Start breakin' up your family too Your family took him in as one of them And as time gone by they don't even care No respect, they moved on And here comes jealousy But they had the same, the same opportunities as you do So you got to tell him, get to steppin' brother Cuz you ain't nothing, you ain't no good You ain't no good, you ain't no friend of mine Testify now, this evening Raise your hands this evening Said you was the one, you was my best friend You was my best friend You was my Brother, friend, homey through thick and thin Misery, misery, misery Brother, a friend, my homey through thick and thin Misery, misery, misery
