Don't you call me brother
Unless you really, really mean it
Don't you call me brother
Unless you get yourself together
How can you call me brother
When you don't even respect my woman
When I can't even trust you behind my back
How can you call me brother, How can you do it?
When you keep tryin' to rip me off?
How in the world can you call me brother
When we can't even have
A man-to-man talk?
And I'm tellin' you
Don't you call me brother
Hey! Don't do it
Unless you really, really, really mean it (You don't really mean it)
Don't do it
Don't you call me brother
Until you get yourself
Get yourself together, brother
How can you call me brother
When you ain't even searchin' for the truth?
How can you call me brother
I can't never depend on you? Oh
How can you call me brother
When you still, you still
Cheat and you lie? You cheat and you lie. Yeah, Oh
How can you call me brother
When you can't even look me in my eye?
And I'm tellin' you
Don't you call me brother
Hey
Unless you really, really, really mean it (You don't really mean it, no, no)
Don't do it
Don't you call me brother
Until you get yourself
Get yourself together, together (Brother!)
So I'm tellin' you
Don't you call me brother
Don't You, Don't You
Unless you really, really, really, really mean it
Don't come around here, with all this money and shaking
Don't do it, Don't do it, Don't do it
Don't you call me brother
You don't really mean it, You're just trying to rip me off
I don't Go away! Go Away! Don't do it
Don't you call me brother
Hanging around people's houses
Corruptin' the neighborhood, You are! You are
Don't you call me brother
Naw, Naw, Naw

Don't you call me brother
Unless you really, really, really, really mean it
You don't even have any self respect! Naw, Naw
How can you respect somebody else!?
I know all about you
I've watched you running around
The neighborhood
(Don't you call me call me brother)
Tryin' to rip me off
I said, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
Just the other day
When I was hanging out down on the main drag, Yeah
I went in to get me a small teeny, weeny totti that evening, Yeah
And when I come out, Yeah! I came out, Yeah! I came out, Yeah
And I got a bad place of the blues when I saw my tires gone
I opened up the door, Yeah
And there was the glove compartment
All torn out on my dashboard
And, here you come, here you come
Here you come, skinnin' and grinnin', Yeah
Skinnin' and grinnin', Yeah
I know you did it
Here you come with a power sign
And talking about, talkin' about
"My man! Solid on down! My brother!"
I said I don't like
How can you really, really, really, really, mean it!?
I know about you, I know what you're good for
I know what you're doing around here
I know all about you, I know all about you
I know, I know, I know you're a
Backbiter!, Backstabber
Low down, cheatin', rotten, No good, No good
Son of a seacup
Yeah, Yeah! You don't really mean it
I know you're dirty
Don't call me
I know you're dirty
Don't call me
I know you're dirty! Brother
How can you call me brother?
When you don't really mean it, I can't use it
Can't even trust you behind my back, Naw, Naw
I can't use it, That kind of carrying on, I don't like it
Giving me the old glad-hand shake! Don't do it
I can't use it
Tellin' me, right on, right on, right on, right on!
It ain't no good
Hey, hey! I hate you
Don't you, Don't you, Don't you call me
brother, brother, brother
Don't you call me
