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

You're tryin’ to make your mark in society.
You’re usin’ all the tricks that you used on me.

You're readin’ all them high-fashion magazines.
The clothes you're wearin', Girl,
Are causin’ public scenes.

I said-a, 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. Ah, ah, ah-ah. Ah, ah, ah-ah.
Not your steppin’ stone. Ah, ah, ah-ah. Ah, ah, ah-ah.

I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin’ stone. No!
When I first met you, Girl, you didn't have no shoes.

But now, you're walkin’ 'round
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-a Who's Whos.

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. Ah, ah, ah-ah. Ah, ah, ah-ah.
I’m not your steppin’ stone. Ah, ah, ah-ah.
Ah, ah, ah-ah.

your steppin’ stone.
Step-step-steppin’ stone. Not your steppin’ stone.
Step-step-steppin’ stone. Not your steppin’ stone.

Step-step-steppin’ stone. Not your steppin’ stone.
Step-step-steppin’ stone. Know what, Girl?
I’m not your steppin’ stone. Step-step-steppin’ stone.

Not your steppin’ stone. Not your steppin’ stone.
Not your steppin’ stone. Not your steppin’ stone.
