"You better take care of me Lord, if you don't you're gonna have me on your hands"

This quote by Hunter S. Thompson is a plea to God to take care of him. He is asking God to watch out for him and protect him, as if to state that if God does not look after him, then God will need to deal with the consequences. Thompson is suggesting that if God does not take care of him, then he will remain in a tight spot and God will need to take responsibility for it. This quote is a reminder to God that Thompson is relying on Him for protection and assistance. It is likewise a tip to Thompson himself that he needs to take care of himself and rely on God for aid. Eventually, this quote is a plea for God to take care of Thompson and to be conscious of his needs.
