Get High Lyrics

Brandy Clark Get High

She hates her job, loves her kids
Bored with her husband,
Tired of the same old list of things to do.
So when the "to-dos" have all been done,
She sits down at the kitchen table,
Rolls herself a fat one.

Smoke so sweet, fills the air,
She maybe oughta to crack a window
All she can do is stare at the paint
That's been a'peeling off the walls
A couple of tokes and her troubles don't seem all that tall

You know life will let you down,
Love will leave you lonely.
Sometimes the only to get by, is to get high

She laughs out loud, at who she used to be.
The girl who'd look down on the woman smoking weed in her kitchen.
Sometimes she misses them younger days.
Seeing the world thru rose colored glasses,
Instead of this purple haze.

But you know life will let you down,
Love will leave you lonely.
Sometimes the only to get by, is to get high

So she tucks her kids in at night
Kisses her husband turns off the lights and talks to God
Says "Lord help me accept the what I can't change"
But until I learn to do that,
Thanks for the Mary Jane.

But you know life will let you down
Love's gonna leave you lonely
Sometimes the only to get by, is to get high
Yeah, sometimes the only to get by, is to get high.
