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, Im a liar, a thief, a junkie And I used to be a whore And Ive been trying to shake this monkey So long, I just cant take it no more I got a weakness I got a hunger, I got a jones Im 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 Im 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 She said, Ive slept with gangsters Thugs and smugglers, congressman and governors Ive 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 Ima do it all again Cause I got a weakness I got a hunger, I got a jones Im 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 Im sitting on the edge of the bubble Just waiting for it to burst
