Baby you're beat up, broken down   Every man knows your name is this whole damn town    In evry bar they know your drink, what should I think   I turn around to look and you gave some dude the wink    I thought you I'd be happy with a women like you,   but you walked on my pride and my manhood too   I don't know too much but one thing I know    A man stuck on you is like a stepping stone       Because you keep using me like a stepping stone   Because you keep using me like a stepping stone   Because you keep using me like a stepping stone   Because you keep using me like a stepping stone      What you forgot to mention, what was the real intention    Did you want a man to love, or someone to prop and carry you up   To a higher status, but thet matter of fact is, your detachment    Will bring you further down, and now you're all used up   don't bother coming round      Because you keep using me like a stepping stone   Because you keep using me like a stepping stone   Because you keep using me like a stepping stone   Because you keep using me like a stepping stone      Well, I rember back to what you put me thru   I kept thinking to myself   What's wrong with you   Ain't it enough to have a man for a lover and a friend    Tear hime up and leave him when the money's spent   Well, your just like Delilah sittin' in her den   You take the strongest man and break'em down again    But I have gained some knowledge    Go pack your things and move back to college      Because you keep using me like a stepping stone   Because you keep using me like a stepping stone   Because you keep using me like a stepping stone   Because you keep using me like a stepping stone
