Lyrics

By robert cray and mike vannice

You use me to get you anything you wanted
Oh, but I'm a changed man now, baby
And your other friend can get you what you want now
If I go through those same things again
I'll be worse off than I started

Girl, you're such a bad influence
And you've got ways to make me do what you want
Girl, you're such a bad influence;
I've got to stay away

I've been hurt in all of the worst kind of ways
And it's you pretty baby
I've just got to stay away from
I won't go through those same things again;
I'm so glad that we parted

Chorus

Somebody please, you've got to help me break away
You know I don't like this lonely feeling
It wasn't meant to be this way
I won't go through those same things again;
I'm so glad we parted

Chorus

You're such a bad influence;
And I have got to stay away
You're such a bad influence;
I've got to stay away from you, baby
I've got to stay away
