Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My friends feel it's their appointed duty
They keep on tryin' to tell me all you wanna do is just use me
But my answer, all that and usin' me stuff
I wanna spread the news that if it feels this good gettin' used
Oh, just keep on usin' me until you use me up
Until you use me up
[Verse 2]
My brother sit me right down and talked to me
And he told me that I ought not to just let you walk on me
And I'm sure he meant well but when our talk was through
I said, "Brother, if you only knew, you'd wish you was in my shoes"
Oh, you keep on using me until you use me up
Until you use me up
[Verse 3]
Sometimes, sometimes, it's true you really do abuse me
You get me in a crowd of high class people
And you act real rude to me
Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby, when you love, I can't get enough
Until you use me up
Until you use me up
[Verse 4]
Talkin' about you usin' me, it all depends on what you do
It ain't too bad that you're usin' me 'cause I sure am usin' you
To do the things you do
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, doll
To do the things you do, babe
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
To do the things you do
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, now
To do the things you do
[Verse 5]
I said, "Brother, if you only knew, you'd wish you was in my shoes"
Oh, you keep on usin' me till you use me up
Till you use me up
Until you use me up, babe
[Verse 6]
Until you use me up
Until you use me up
Until you use me up
