I remember the old saying daddy to say He'd say, "Son, watch back 'cuz misery loves company" I never understood what it meant till this
She put you out no place to go, you call me up And I right on over, said you had a few problems You knew you were wrong, wanted to get yourself So, I let you at my home
When I started peepin', you eyes at my boo Goin' out way to be all up in her face Me and her would be in bed doin' we do Then I dunno where, ask me things I only told you
Misery loves company, I you were 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 steppin' brotha, you're on 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, happen to me"
Oh 'cuz one day close your eyes And to your surprise, you open them and see Somebody been all up in your 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 thought you a friend to me But is right and wrong is wrong, so pack 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
Get to homey, get to goin', boy, you act like You know me, get your move on, oh no, no, no
It's a low down dirty shame when your so-called Start playin' games, they how to get to you All inside, all up in your business, start breakin' up family too family took him in as one of them
And as time gone by they don't even care, no They moved on and here comes But had the same, the same opportunities as you do So you got to him, get to steppin' brother
'Cuz you ain't nothing, you no good You no good, you ain't no friend of mine Testify now, evening, raise your hands this evening Said you was the one, you was my best
You was my best friend, you was my brother, Homey thick and thin, misery, misery, misery Brother, a friend, my homey and thin, misery, misery, misery
