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.
