Lyrics Brandy Clark – Take A Little Pill

Mama got depressed
When Daddy was a-dying
So the doctor gave her something
To help her with her crying

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

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
