My friends
Feel it's their appointed duty
They keep trying to tell me
All you want to do is use me
Uh huh but my answer
About all that use me stuff
I want to spread the news
That if it feels this good getting used
You can keep on using me
Until you use me up
My brother
Sit me right down and he talked to me - what
did he say?
But he told me
That I ought to not let you just walk on me
Well I'm sure that he meant well
Yeah but when that talk was through
I said brother if you only knew
You'd wish you were in my shoes
You can keep on using me
Until you use me up
Yeah baby
Until you use me up
Hey hey, hey hey
Oh sometimes
It's true you really do abuse me
You get me in a crowd of high class people
And you act real nasty to me
I said baby, baby, baby, baby
When you love me I can't get enough
Use me, use me
(...) I want to go (...)
I know, I know (...)
I'm going to keep on, keep on, keep on, keep
on using you
Until I use you up
Who's using who?
Just who's using who?
