Use Me

[Intro: David Sanborn]
He's one of the most soulful and talented musicians around
Doing the Bill Withers tune "Use Me," please welcome D’Angelo

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 1: D'Angelo]
My friends, mmm, feel it's their appointed duty
They keep tryna tell me
All you wanna do is use me, mmm
Well, my answer, ah-ah, of all that use me stuff

[Chorus: D'Angelo]
I, I said wanna spread the news
That if it feels this good getting used
Oh, you just keep on using me
Until you use me up
Until you use me up

[Verse 2: D'Angelo]
My brother, sit me right down and he talked to me
Hе's tryna me I, I, I, that I oughta not let you just walk on me, yеah, no
And I’m sure he meant well
Yeah, but when our talk was through, oh

[Chorus: D'Angelo]
I, I said, brother, if you only knew
You'd wish that you was in my shoes
Just keep on using me
Until you use me up
Ah, until you use me up
Hey, ah-ah, ah, ah, hey, won't you play a little bit

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3: D'Angelo]
Oh, oh-oh-oh, sometimes, mmm, mmm
It's true, you really do abuse me, mmm, oh
You get me in a room of high-class people
And then you act real rude to me, hey
Oh, oh baby, baby, baby, baby
When you love me, I can't get enough, ooh-ooh

[Chorus: D'Angelo]
I, I, I, I, I wanna spread the news
That if it feels this good getting used
Oh, you just keep on using me, huh
Well, 'til you use me up, oh
Ah, until you use me up
Oh, oh, ow

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro: D'Angelo]
Oh, oh, I, I wanna spread the news
That if it feels this good getting used
Oh, you just keep on using me, huh
'Til you use me up
