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