I always took pride standing on my own two feet I never leaned on anyone but me And I'm not braggin' but there's been times When I've looked the devil in the eye and never blinked But tonight, yeah tonight I need something stronger than I've got to offer Don't know if I've ever felt this weak If I'm gonna make it without breakin' down on this dead end street I need somethin' stronger than me I'm not much for drinking But if it stops the ache in my heart I'll try to drown it 'till the morning comes And I'll try praying God I'll try anything and everything I can To keep from giving up 'Cause I know, Lord I know I need something stronger than I've got to offer Don't know if I've ever felt this weak If I'm gonna make it without breakin' down on this dead end street I need somethin' stronger than me I need somethin' Everything in me wants to pick up that telephone Even though I know it's wrong I need something stronger than I've got to offer Don't know if I've ever felt this weak If I'm gonna make it without breakin' down on this dead end street I need somethin' stronger than me Somethin' stronger I need somethin' stronger than me
