This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I come from the land where the mullet attacks
Business up front
Party in the back
You gotta style in the south when you're stepping out
Put a gold tooth in your mouth
Lookin' good now
Your Tank top, your ball-cap, you think you're all that
But you're looking like Scott Stapp
You're just another redneck from back in the woods
Not a Kountry Gentleman that can bring the good
(Tayo)
[Chorus]
My mama raised me in the durty south
A Kountry Gentleman
So you best watch you're mouth
My mama raised me in the durty south
A Kountry Gentleman
That is what it's all about
(x2)
IROC-Z, got an eagle on it
Rolling on some 12's
Don't you know I'm gonna flaunt it
Am I driving too fast for you now?
BACKFIRE!!
The muffler goes KA-PLOW!!
Now that I got your attention
Just let me mention that I'm pinchin' pennies
To buy some twenties.
Cause I got plenties and manies, and moneys just to give to my friends
And that would certify me as a Kountry Gentleman....
Mama, what you got cookin' up in that kitchen?
Cookin' fried chicken?
You know I love that soul food
Everything you cook is so good
For a southern man like me
You gotta cook it up clean, cook it up mean
Mama don't like it when you got leftovers
Gimme me some of them collard greens
Got me some grub and I gotta go
Down to the Grocery store
Tailgate party at the PIG WIG
Jumpin' up and down in the back of a truck bed
Look at that kid tryin' to act all big
Trying to break-dance so break his leg
He ain't got what I got
Let's make it hot in this parking lot
[Chorus]
My mama raised me in the durty south
A Kountry Gentleman
So you best watch you're mouth
My mama raised me in the durty south
A Kountry Gentleman
That's what it's all about
[Breakdown]
The durty durty south [x3]
WATCH WHAT YOU SAY AROUND MY MAMA!
SHE RAISED ME IN THE DURTY SOUTH!!
I SAID WATCH WHAT YOU SAY AROUND MY MAMA!!
SHE RAISED ME IN THE DURTY SOUTH!! [x2]
[Chorus x2]
Business up front
Party in the back
You gotta style in the south when you're stepping out
Put a gold tooth in your mouth

But you're looking like Scott Stapp
You're just another redneck from back in the woods
Not a Kountry Gentleman that can bring the good

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
