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
|
