Bill Withers

Use Me

My friends feel it’s their appointed duty,
To tell me, all you want to do is use me
My answer to all that use me stuff
Is I want to spread the news that if it feels this good getting used
Just keep on using me ‘till you use me up

My brother sat me right down and he talked to me
He told me I ought not let you just walk on me
He meant well but when our talk was through
I said brother if you only knew you’d wish that you were in my shoes
Just keep on using me until you use me up

Sometimes it’s true you really do abuse me
You get me in a crowd of high class people and act real rude to me
But oh! Baby when you love me I can’t get enough
And I want to spread the news, if it feels this good getting used
You just keep on using me until you use me up

Talking 'bout you using people
It all depends on what you do
It ain’t too bad the way you using me
'Cause I sure am using you to do the things you do.
