Take a Little Pill Lyrics

Momma got depressed, Daddy was a dyin'
Till the doctor gave her something to help her with the cryin'
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 won't work, then another one will
If ya got a little hurt, ya take a little pill
Fellow down the road that walks with a limp
He's a decorated solider and a pain pill pimp
Got a loaded gun and an old pit bull
A black Cadillac with the whole trunk full
Says if one won't work then another one will
If ya got a little hurt, ya take a little pill.
Lay it on your tongue
Ain't a nerve that can't be numbed

Ain't a buzz that you can't buy
Ain't a law you can't make high
Till it wears off, like it always will
And when it does
Ya take a little pill
You don't need a needle
You don't need a vein
Don't burn like whiskey
Or cost like cocaine
If ya ever lose a lover or wanna lose some weight
What you can't cure you can medicate
If one won't work, then another one will
If ya hot a little hurt, ya take a little pill
Lay it on your tongue
Ain't a nerve that can't be numbed
Ain't a buzz that you can't buy
Ain't a law you can't make high
Till it wears off, like it always will
And when it does, ya take a little pill
