This is my tribute to Willie Nelson and it would probably be an automatic Vocal Event CMA or Grammy nomination if artists like Vince, Garth, George Strait, and Alan Jackson teamed up and if a label was willing to put it together and produce it as a project. Might even get those guys back on the radio for three minutes. Some of the new guys like Chris Stapleton or Jamey Johnson and females like Dolly and Norah Jones could be included. These guys and the music industry in general owe a big debt of gratitude to Willie Nelson. |
Ode To Willie
Ain't it funny how the time has slipped away Since his blue eyes were crying in the rain Been on the road again so long it's crazy really All the things that country music owes to Willie Ode to Willie All the songs he's sung before Everything that he's stood for Like seeds of hope for the common man Wild horses and the farmers' land Just an angel flying too close to the ground The world was surely blessed when he touched down If we had to pay the price what would the bill be For the debt of gratitude Owed to Willie Ode to Willie All the lives that he has touched With music that has meant so much An inspiration for so long For everyone who writes a song Just an angel flying too close to the ground The world was surely blessed when he touched down If we had to pay the price what would the bill be For the debt of gratitude Owed to Willie |
