My Weakness Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been flying down a dead-end road
A highway without a home
If she wasn't my weakness
If she wasn't my weakness
I'd be half a soul from saved
I'd be one foot in the grave
If she wasn't my weakness
If she wasn't my weakness

[Pre-Chorus]
She's a hurricane raining holy water
Yeah, and every piece of me can't live without her

[Chorus]
She ain't no cigarette you can put down
Like a habit, get past it
She's the only thing I know I gotta have it, yeah
She ain't no whiskey pour you can wave it off
And walk away from, leaving half-drunk
She's stronger than that
I'd still be lost and running, if she wasn't
My weakness
Oh, my weakness

[Verse 2]
Oh, my wild side's a little too strong
Woulda screwed it up and done her wrong
If she wasn't my weakness
If she wasn't my weakness
All the giving to temptation
The good times I'd be wasting
If she wasn't my weakness
If she wasn't my weakness
[Pre-Chorus]
She's a sunrise summer in the darkest hour
Yeah, and every piece of me can't live without her

[Chorus]
She ain't no cigarette you can put down
Like a habit, get past it
She's the only thing I know I gotta have it, yeah
She ain't no whiskey pour you can wave it off
And walk away from, leaving half-drunk
She's stronger than that
I'd still be lost and running, if she wasn't
My weakness
Oh, my weakness, yeah

[Bridge]
She's the voice in your head you wanna turn up louder
Yeah, and every piece of me can't live without her

[Chorus]
Well, she ain't no cigarette you can put down
Like a habit, get past it
She's the only thing I know I gotta have it, yeah
She ain't no whiskey pour you can wave it off
And walk away from, leaving half-drunk
She's stronger than that
I'd still be lost and running, if she wasn't
My weakness
Oh, my weakness
Yeah

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What did Jason Aldean say about "My Weakness"?
Genius Answer

We had that song on hold for either the Rearview Town album or the 9 album. It was one of those two. Having 20 new songs on the record, we had a lot more spots for songs than we normally did. I remembered how much I loved the song, and I don’t know why we didn’t end up cutting it when we tracked it. I don’t know if something else came in at the last minute, or we felt like it was too close to something else and we just backed off of it. So we basically just went in and redid some overdubs on the track, and I went in and sang it.
