Little Yellow Pills Lyrics

You don't know how bad I feel
The doctor says I'm very ill
He's feeding me little yellow pills for my heart
And its a shame, shame, shame

My temperatures a hundred and two
And the doctor don't think I'm gonna pull through
But there's nothing he can do without you, girl
And its a shame, shame, shame
Oh its a shame, shame, shame

I'm wasting away to nothing
And I ain't got the will to try
But if you don't come home running, now
I swear I'm gonna die
Its a doggone shame, oh yes it is

I said its a shame, shame, shame
Oh its a shame, shame, shame

I'm wasting away to nothing
And I ain't got the will to try
But if you don't come home running
I swear I'm gonna die
Its a shame, shame

You know I'm a hospital case
I lost all the color from my face
I'm gonna leave the human race
If you don't come home

Its a shame, shame, shame
And its a shame, shame, shame
Its a doggone shame
Baby please come home

Its a shame, shame, shame, shame, shame
(I need them little yellow pills)
Its a shame, shame, shame
(I need them little yellow pills)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
