I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone
I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone

You're trying to make your mark in society
You're using all the tricks that you used on me
You're reading all them high-fashion magazines
The clothes you're wearing, girl, they're causing public scenes

I said, I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone
I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone (No!)

Not your steppin' stone
Not your steppin' stone

When I first met you, girl, you didn't have no shoes
But, now you're walking around like you're front page news
You've been awful careful 'bout the friends you choose
But, you won't find my name in your book of "Who's Who"

I said, I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone (No, girl, not me!)
I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone (No!)

Not your steppin' stone
I'm not your steppin' stone

Not your steppin' stone
Not your steppin' stone
Not your steppin' stone
Not your steppin' stone

No, girl, I'm not your steppin' stone
Not your steppin' stone
Not your steppin' stone
Not your steppin' stone
