I remember the old daddy used to say He'd say, "Son, watch your back 'cuz misery company" I never understood what it meant till happened
She put you out with no 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 right So, I let you at my home
I started peepin', you makin' eyes at my boo Goin' out your way to be all up in her Me and her be in bed doin' what we do Then I dunno where, ask me things I only told you
Misery loves company, I thought you were a to me But right is right and wrong is wrong, so pack your Brother, you on own, step on, step on, step on Get to steppin' brotha, you're on your own, step on, step on, on
My man, my man, my brother, my yeah Step on, step on, on
A lesson learned but told long ago, keep enemies But friends even closer, the truth, see Happiness breeds envy, don't say the words "It'll never, never, never, never to me"
Oh 'cuz one day you'll close eyes And then to surprise, you open them and see Somebody all up in your cherry tree Then be the day, that you'll lose your mind Just spending time writing letters in a cell 20 to life
Misery company, I thought you were 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, you're on own, step on, step on, step on
Get to homey, get to goin', boy, you act like You don't know me, get move on, oh no, no, no
It's a low down dirty shame when so-called friends playin' games, they know how to get to you All inside, all up in your business, breakin' up your family too family took him in as one of them
And as time by they don't even care, no respect 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
'Cuz you ain't nothing, you ain't no You ain't no good, you ain't no friend of Testify now, this evening, your hands this evening you was the one, you was my best friend
You was my friend, you was my brother, friend Homey through thick and thin, misery, misery, Brother, a friend, my through and thin, misery, misery, misery
