Take A Little Pill Lyrics - 12 Stories - Brandy Clark

Mama got depressed 

When Daddy was a-dying 

So the doctor gave her something 

To help her with her crying 

Then she couldn't sleep 

So he gave her something else 

Now there's yellow, red and pink 

On her bathroom shelf 

Says if one don't work 

Then another one will 

If you got a little hurt 

You take a little pill 

Fella down the road 

Walks with a limp 

He's a decorated soldier 

And a pain pill pimp 

Got a loaded gun 

And an old pit bull 

A black Cadillac 

With a whole trunk full 

Says if one don't work 

Then another one will 

If you got a little hurt 

You take a little pill 

Lay on your tongue 

Ain't a nerve that can't be numb 

Ain't a buzz that you can't buy 

Ain't a low you can't make high 

Til it wears off 

Like it always will 

And when it does 

You take a little pill 

Woah 

Woah 

You don't need a needle 

You don't need a vein 

No burn like whiskey 

No cross like cocaine 

If you ever lose a lover 

Or you wanna lose some weight 

What you can't cure 

You can medicate 

If one don't work 

Then another one will 

If you got a little hurt 

You take a little pill 

Lay on your tongue 

Ain't a nerve that can't be numb 

Ain't a buzz that you can't buy 

Ain't a low you can't make high 

Til it wears off 

Like it always will 

And when it does 

You take a little pill 

Woah 

Woah
