I remember the old daddy used to say He'd say, "Son, watch your 'cuz misery loves company" I understood what it meant till this happened
She put you out no place to go, you call me up And I came right on over, you had a few problems You knew you were wrong, wanted to get yourself So, I let you stay at my
I started peepin', you makin' eyes 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 told you
Misery loves company, I thought you a friend to me But right is and wrong is wrong, so pack your bags Brother, you on your own, step on, on, step on Get to brotha, you're on your own, step on, step on, step on
My man, my man, my brother, my homey Step on, on, step on
A learned but told long ago, keep enemies close But friends closer, tell the truth, see Happiness breeds envy, don't say the words "It'll never, never, never, never to me"
Oh one day you'll close your eyes And then to your surprise, you them and see Somebody been all up in your tree Then that'll be the day, that lose your mind Just time writing letters in a cell doing 20 to life
Misery 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, step on, on, step on Get to steppin' brotha, you're on your own, on, step on, step on
Get to movin' homey, get to goin', boy, you act You don't know me, get your on, oh no, no, no
It's a low down dirty shame when so-called friends Start playin' games, know how to get to you All inside, all up in your business, start up your family too Your took him in as one of them
And as time gone by they don't even care, no They moved on and here jealousy But they had the same, the same as you do So you got to him, get to steppin' brother
you ain't nothing, you ain't no good You ain't no good, you no friend of mine now, this evening, raise your hands this evening Said you was the one, you was my best
You was my friend, you was my brother, friend Homey thick and thin, misery, misery, misery Brother, a friend, my homey Thick and thin, misery, misery,
