I was your steppin' stone

I was your little dog's bone

But now you've made it without me

You know all about me

And that's all right



You cry

The whole night long

I try

Love's right and wrong

And now the sun's sleepin' through

And it's down on you, too

It's just not fair



Now what is right is right

And what's done's done

But before you come 'round my door, woman

Gonna see where you're comin' from

Better count up your change

And put a smile on your mind

Before you want away for any more of my time

I couldn't have loved you better

I could have loved you worse

I know what comes last baby

And you've known it from the first



I was your steppin' stone

I was your little dog's bone

But now you've made it without me

You know all about me

And that's all right
