(by Bill Withers)

My friends 
feel its their appointed duty 
they keep trying to tell me 
all you want to do is use me 
(ah ha) but my answer (ah ha) 
yea to all the use me stuff

i-i-i and i wanna spread the news 
that if it feels this good getting used 
oh you just keep on using me 
until you use me up 
til you use me up

my brother 
sit me right down and he talked to me 
(oh oh) and he told me (ah ha) 
that i ought not let you just walk on me 
and i am sure he meant well 
yeah but when that talk was through 
i-i-i said brother if you only knew 
you would wish that you were in my shoes 
oh you just keep on using me 
until you use me up 
til you use me up

(oh oh) sometimes 
yeah its true you really do abuse me 
(oh) you get me in a crowd of high class people (ah ha) 
and then you act real rude to me 
yeah (ah ha) but oh baby baby baby baby 
when you love me i can't get enough

(oh oh) and i wanna spread the news 
that if it feels this good getting used 
oh you just keep on using me 
until you use me up 
(ah) til you use me up

talking about you using me baby 
it all depends on what you do 
its ain't too bad the way your using me 
cause i am sure am using you to do the things you do 
ah to do the things you do
