Tekst piosenki
(Chorus)
Don’t you call me brother
(Eddie Levert:}
Unless you really, really
Mean it
(Chorus)
Don’t you call me brother
(Eddie:)
Unless you get yourself together
(Walter Williams:)
How can you call me brother
When you don’t even respect my woman
When I can’t even trust you behind my back
(Eddie:)
How can you call me brother — How can you do it?
Whe 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 —
(Chorus:)
Don’t you call me brother
(Eddie:)
Hey! Don’t dont it
Unless you really, really, really mean it (Walter:You don’t really mean it)
Don’t do it
(Chorus:)
Don’t you call me brother
(Eddie:)
Until you get yourself
Get yourself together, brother
(Walter:)
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? Ohhh
(Eddie:)
How can you call me brother
When you still — you still
Cheat and you lie? You cheat and you lie. Yeah — Ohhh!
How can you call me brother
When you can’t even look me in my eye?
And I’m tellin’ you —
(Chorus:)
Don’t you call me brother
(Eddie:)
Hey!
Unless you really, really, really mean it (Walter:You don’t really mean it, No, No)
Don’t do it
(Chorus:)
Don’t you call me brother
(Eddie:)
Until you get yourself
Get yourself together, together (Walter: Brother!)
(Eddie:)
So I’m tellin’ you:
(Chorus:)
Don’t you call me brother
(Eddie:)
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!
(Chorus:)
Don’t you call me brother
(Walter:)
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!

Hanging around people’s houses
Corruptin’ the neighborhood — You are! You are!

Naw, Naw, Naw! —
Naw, Naw, Naw, Naw, Naw!
(Chorus:)

The neighborhood —
(Background: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!
(Walter:)
Skinnin’ and grinnin’, Yeah!
(Walter:)
I know you did it!
(Eddie:)
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

Backbiter! — Backstabber!
