John Mellencamp Weakest Moments song lyrics

Well, I hear you downstairs

You're foolin' around with your father's brother

And your mother's gown

All the old heroes keep comin' around

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 leavin' tomorrow

Yeah, I'll be with you in your weakest moments, uh huh

Yeah, I'll be there with you in your weakest moments

Well, you say you can 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, girl, till you find the gate

That swings on that thin line of love and hate

And baby, just let it go

Yeah, I'll be with you in your weakest moments, uh huh

Yeah, I'll be there with you in your weakest moments

Yeah, I'll be with you in your weakest moments, uh huh

Yeah, I'll be with you in your weakest moments, girl

Yeah, I'll be with you in your weakest moments, uh huh

Yeah, I'll be with you in your weakest moments

Those weakest moments

Weakest moments
