DHelp me, 911 operator, got a Friday night Gemergency
I need Dnursin' cause I'm hurtin' from a long week workin'
And I'm Athirstin' for a remedy

Angel of mercy that will put me through intensive Gcare

Cause I'm Ddying to see something like a juke joint jumpin'
to a Athumpin' little five piece band
And be it Dred dirt, swing, just anything that's country
