"Pain Pills" lyrics - 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
When Vicky got out it took about a week to catch the fever
Went across town to Doctor Brown begging 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
Went to his house and broke the door down trying to steal 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

[Bridge:]
The girl next door's on the bathroom floor
Thinking 'bout taking her a little bit more
Ain't never been this bad before

[Chorus:]
Had 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
