Oh I got one hand on the bottle, and the other on the wheel
And I'm tearin up a Cgravel road, just Dnorth of SandersGville

Stole some moonshine from my Cdad, and half of Dits already Ggone. 
Oh Lord, oh DLord, help me Cmake it through the night 
Cuz I Emjust cant Dhelp myGself, 
Oh I try, I Dtry but I can't Cturn it around, 
Oh no I Emjust can't Dhelp mysGelf.

GOh I picked up the preacher's daughter; she's as fine as she is wild, 
And when her daddy's not Caround, she don't act Dlike a preacher's Gchild
And I knew what she was after when asked me for the ride 
Yea daddy's little Cangel's got Dfire in her Geyes 
Oh Lord, oh DLord, help me Cmake it through the night 
Cuz I Emjust can't Dhelp myGself. 
Oh I try, I Dtry, but this Cgirl's all over me, 
Oh and I Emjust can't Dhelp myGself. 
Aw help me now.

And if I die come Monday, I know ill be heaven bound 
And ill be white as Csnow until the Dweekend rolls aGround 
Oh Lord, oh DLord, help me Cmake it through the night 
Oh cuz I Emjust can't Dhelp myGself.
