Pass up: to let go by without accepting or taking advantage of

Stall me: to delay someone from doing something. You stall a person to give a different person more time to accomplish something.

Yep, this is what I found too, but it doesn't make much sense in the context of the song: what does that whole line exactly mean?

What I understand is that the song is about one leaving, other plans, and the other wants her back, If only for a brieth momnet.

This scenario is common in the American work place.

Could the lyrics be "you pass me up and stall me one more time"?

Not every single word should be analyzed, and held up at it's verbatim meaning IMO. In all song lyrics, and Ron Wood in '73,74 was probably free styling a lot. Often one sings lyrics, puts them down, and then assigns meaning afterwards.
To be honest, I always thought it was "Pass me up and stone me one more time". But 'stall' probably makes more sense.
I hear it more as 'pass me up, and freeze me, amaze me'. I mean, she is passing him, leaving him behind maybe.
