Bluegrass meets outlaw country in the able hands of legends John David (banjo) and Brantley Kearns (fiddle, vocs); the Democrat protagonist thanks the President for waking him from a political coma.

THANK YOU DONALD
Gerry Spehar
I was heading towards the cliff, gettin' ready to kill myself
When the radio said NC went red and the whole damn country bled
So I stopped the truck, said WTF!
It cut me like a knife, brought me back to life
Gotta help the kids, gotta help the wife
Thank you, Donald! I can't die yet
Thank you, Donald! I can't quit
Thank you, Donald! You saved my life
On the way home I drove 'er down in the ditch, slapped my head said son-of-a-bitch
That's exactly what that man's gonna do to the whole damn country in a year or two
I got 'er back on the road and hit the gas, kicked that truck in the ass
Cause it cut me like a knife, brought me back to life
Gotta tell the kids, gotta tell the wife
Thank you, Donald! I can't die yet
Thank you, Donald! I can't quit
Thank you, Donald! You saved my life
Now, they tell me love trumps hate, and maybe that's true at the Pearly Gate
But there ain't much love down here, just a whole lotta hate and fear
And a whole lotta money and greed, sucked up by a few bad seeds
And it cuts me like a knife, brings me back to life
Gotta get a little bit for the kids and wife
Thank you, Donald! I can't die yet
Thank you, Donald! I can't quit
Thank you, Donald! You saved my life
I ain't gonna quit; gotta vote a little bit
No, I ain't gonna quit; gotta vote a little bit
