Stop Watching Your Enemies Songtext
von Koko Taylor

Hey girls
Just a word of advice
You think it can′t happen to you
You better think about it twice

I just wanna tell y'all
What happened to me
While I was watching my enemies
My man was taken from me

Come home this morning
Straight from my job
I saw someone leaving
Right out of my backyard

I went inside
I couldn′t believe what my eyes saw
Another woman's nightgown
And her dirty underclothes


I found out later
It was my so-called friend
She know when I'm leaving
That′s the minute she steps right in

Stop watching your enemies
Keep your eye on your so-called friends
They′re the ones that break your heart
And take your man at the end

I got something to tell you
That you may not know
It ain't the one that you don′t like
But the girl that's right next door

She lay awake at night
While you′re trying to sleep
And all day long while you're gone
She′s cutting down from A to Z

Stop watching your enemies
Keep your eye on your so-called friends
She's the one that break your heart
And take your man at the end


You can drive my car
You can eat my bread
But I don't want no woman
Laid up in my bed

I loan you my money
You can even wear my clothes
But when you mess with my man
Girl, you′re stepping on my toes

Stop watching your enemies
Keep your eye on your so-called friends
They′re the ones that break your heart
And take your man at the end

You can drive my car
You can eat my bread
But I don't want no woman
Laid up in my bed

I loan you my money
You can even wear my clothes
But when you mess with my man
Girl, you′re stepping on my toes

Stop watching your enemies
Keep your eye on your so-called friends
They're the ones that break your heart
And take your man at the end

Stop watching your enemies
Keep your eye on that so-called girlfriend
You know they wanna babysit play
Babysit your man and your children

Just stop watching your enemies
Keep your eye on your so-called friends
