Well, I hear you downstairs;
|
You're foolin' around with your father's brother
|
And your mother's gown.
|
|
All the old heroes keep coming round
|
To find out if you're still at home.
|
|
So you lie in the sun, watch your body turn to tan.
|
Your skin is oiled with the sweat of a man.
|
|
He bought you a diamond ring, girl, to wear on your hand.
|
And baby, he's leaving tomorrow.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Yeah, I'll be with you in your weakest moments, uh huh.
|
Yeah, I'll be there with you in your weakest moments.
|
|
You say you remember when it was your world
|
And you were Mister Ruby's girl.
|
He gave you dreams and schemes that swirl
|
Around your head and your body.
|
|
And when you drink sometimes, you try to liberate.
|
And you stagger in the front yard till you find the gate
|
That swing on that thin line of love and hate.
|
And baby, just let it go.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Yeah, I'll be with you in your weakest moments, uh huh.
|
Yeah, I'll be there with you in your weakest moments.
