My apologies to Ray Willie Hubbard. This sounds nothing like his great version of this. All instruments played by me, in studio.

Done by the Blind Boys of Alabama and Johnny Cash but NEVER like this. The base for this song was constructed from home made samples, including the sound of a 9mm Sig Sauer being fired. Bass was my first attempt at using a synth (Massive).
