He's Just Weak Lyrics

He’s got a brand new baby, she’s got a lot to learn
He’s drop dead and he’s charming but when the table’s turn
She’ll be so mad she can’t speak
He ain’t wicked–he’s just weak

Like a desert Shaman, he’ll put you in a trance
He’ll pick you up in his Cadillac and he’ll leave you at the dance
Then at 3 a.m. you’ll hear that screen door creak
He ain’t wicked–he’s just weak
Chorus
And when there’s talk of settling down he thinks that’s on you bed
Then he’ll sweet talk and you’ll come around
You’ll forget what you just said
You can lead him down a righteous path
But he don’t know right from wrong
He’ll wind up walking out your door and you knew it all along

He use to be my man, oh but now he’s just my boy
I treat him like he treated me–just an afternoon of joy
And when he leaves, well there ain’t no key to keep
He ain’t wicked–he’s just weak
Chorus

Don’t think you can change him ‘cause honey he’s just made that way
And girl you know when he says forever that might only last a day
He’s the undisputed king of double-speak
He ain’t wicked he’s just weak
