The Rolling Stones - Mother’s Little Helper (Lyric Video)
Let It Bleed (50th Anniversary Edition) is out now:
“Mother’s Little Helper” by The Rolling Stones
Composers: Mick Jagger and Keith Richards
Lyrics:
What a drag it is getting old
“Kids are different today,“ I hear ev’ry mother say
Mother needs something today to calm her down
And though she’s not really ill
There’s a little yellow pill
She goes running for the shelter of a mother’s little helper
And it helps her on her way
Gets her through her busy day
“Things are different today,“ I hear ev’ry mother say
Cooking fresh food for a husband’s just a drag
So she buys an instant cake and she burns her frozen steak
And goes running for the shelter of a mother’s little helper
And two help her on her way
Get her through her busy day
Doctor please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took four more
What a drag it is getting old
“Men just aren’t the same today,“ I hear ev’ry mother say
They just don’t appreciate that you get tired
They’re so hard to satisfy, you can tranquilise your mind
So go running for the shelter of a mother’s little helper
And four help you through the night
Help to minimise your plight
Doctor please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took four more
What a drag it is getting old
“Life’s just much too hard today,“ I hear ev’ry mother say
The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore
And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose
No more running for the shelter of a mother’s little helper
They just helped you on your way, through your busy dying day
