Not everybody loves country music, but heck, it's Friday—who doesn't love a little medicine to make it all better. That's why we're serving up of a heapin' helpin' of "Buy My Medicine," Snoop Dogg's latest ode to inebriation.

With an assist from the always-smokin' Willie Nelson, the track finds the Snoop D-Oh-Double-G casually rapping over pedal-steel guitar swirls and country-style strummin' about sending someone out to the "drugstore."

But this is also an anthem of true love, passion and the eternity of ardor, as this sample lyric so deftly demonstrates: "Girl, my love's gonna last just as long as my high, and I'm high all day, every day."
