Weakness lyrics - Everlast

Met a fine red boned mami

She told me that her name was Lucille

Met her on Fountain Avenue

Sitting on a Cadillac Coupe De Ville

She said, I'm a liar, a thief, a junkie

And I used to be a whore

And I've been trying to shake this monkey

So long, I just can't take it no more

I got a weakness

I got a hunger, I got a jones

I'm sick and I need to get well

I hurt deep in my bone

I got a weakness

I got a fever, I got a thirst

I'm sitting on the edge of the bubble

Just waiting for it to burst

We talked all afternoon

She made me cry, I told some jokes

She looked me deep in my eyes

And told me love was nothing but a cruel hoax

Her grandmother died when she was five

And she never did know her folks

Her father fell in a gun fight

And her mother by an overdose

I got a weakness

I got a hunger, I got a jones

I'm sick and I need to get well

I hurt deep in my bones

I got a weakness

I got a fever, I got a thirst

I'm sitting on the edge of the bubble

Just waiting for it to burst

She said, I've slept with gangsters

Thugs and smugglers, congressman and governors

I've seen therapists and holy men

But this weakness is my only friend

It feeds my need, it numbs my soul

It starts to creep and take control

I sell my flesh, I pierce my skin

And tomorrow I'ma do it all again

'Cause I got a weakness

I got a hunger, I got a jones

I'm sick and I need to get well

I hurt deep in my bones

I got a weakness

I got a fever, I got a thirst

I'm sitting on the edge of the bubble

Just waiting for it to burst
