Текст песни Don't Call Me Brother (The O'Jays) с переводом

Don’t you call me brother

(Eddie Levert:)

Unless you really, really

Mean it

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 --

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

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 --

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

Don’t you call me brother

(Eddie:)

Until you get yourself

Get yourself together, together (Walter: Brother!)

(Eddie:)

So I’m tellin' you:

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!

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!

Don’t you call me brother

(Eddie:)

Hanging around people’s houses

Corruptin' the neighborhood -- You are! You are!

Don’t you call me brother

(Eddie:)

Naw, Naw, Naw! --

Naw, Naw, Naw, Naw, Naw!

Don’t you call me brother

(Eddie:)

Unless you really, really, really, really mean it!

(Walter:)

You don’t even have any self respect! Naw, Naw!

How can you respect somebody else?!

IIIII -- know all about you

I’ve watched you running around

The neighborhood --

(Background:Don't you call me call me brother)

Tryin' to rip me off

(Eddie:)

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 case 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

I know -- I know, I know you’re a --

Backbiter! -- Backstabber!

Low down -- cheatin' -- rotten -- No good -- No good -- (Whoo!!!)

Son of a seacup!

(Walter:)

Yeah, Yeah! You don’t really mean it!

(Eddie:)

I know you’re dirty!

(Walter:)

Don’t call me --

(Eddie:)

I know you’re dirty!

(Walter:)

Don’t call me!

(Eddie:)

I know you’re dirty! Brother!

(Walter:)

How can you call me brother?

(Eddie:)

When you don’t really mean it -- I can’t use it!

(Walter:)

Can’t even trust you behind my back, Naw, Naw!

(Eddie:)

I can’t use it -- That kind of carrying on, I don’t like it!

(Walter:)

Giving me the old glad-hand shake! Don’t do it!

(Eddie:)

I can’t use it!

(Walter:)

Tellin' me -- right on, right on -- right on, right on!

(Eddie:)

It ain’t no good!

(Walter:)

Whooo!!!

Heyyy, Heeyyy!!! I hate you --

Don’t you -- Don’t you -- Don’t you call me ---

Brother -- brother -- brother!

(Walter:)

Whooo!!!

Don’t you call me!
