Pain Pills Lyrics - American Middle Class - Angaleena Presley

When Davey dropped dead the papers said he was a football hero 

Kids all cried and the rumors died and before he was in the ground 

Jimmy was up on the strip job, sucking another one down 

??? 

Went across town to Dr. Brown beggin' for some pain pills 

Chorus: 

Pain pills, a little bit of hurt is surely gonna kill a lot of good people in these here hills 

Lord, won't you save us from these old pain pills 

When Hazel Jean died, her mother tried to say it was pneumonia 

The minister's wife told a bold-faced lie to protect her daughter's name 

When half of the congregation was hooked on the very same thing 

When Tommy caught wind that his Uncle Tim was about to die from cancer 

When to his house and broke the door down tryin' to steal some pain pills 

Chorus 

The girl next door's on the bathroom floor 

Thinkin' 'bout taking her a little bit more 

Ain't never been this bad before 

Enough of these pain pills, pain pills 

A little bit of hurt is surely gonna kill a lot of good people 

In these here hills 

Oh Lord, won't you save us from these old pain pills
