What Would Willie Do - Willie Nelson[00:00:00]
I was lost in trouble and strife [00:00:01]
I heard a voice and it changed my life[00:00:04]
And now it's a brand new day [00:00:09]
And I ain't ashamed to say[00:00:13]
You're not alone when you're down and out[00:00:15]
And I think you know who I'm talking about[00:00:20]
When I don't know how I'll get through[00:00:24]
I ask myself what would Willie do[00:00:30]
Here we go[00:00:38]
He came unto us his words were simple[00:00:41]
But they went right through us[00:00:44]
And the whole world sang along [00:00:47]
But then they didn't want to hear his songs[00:00:50]
He was gone and we thought we'd lost him[00:00:55]
But he just grew his hair and he moved to Austin[00:00:59]
And all of the people smiled [00:01:02]
They came to hear him sing from miles[00:01:07]
Like a miracle all those rednecks and hippies[00:01:11]
From New York City down to Mississippi[00:01:15]
Stood together and raised a brew[00:01:19]
When your skies are grey what would Willie do[00:01:23]
You know sometimes I still wonder[00:01:39]
When I ain't gettin' nowhere[00:01:41]
What would old Willie do[00:01:44]
When Things get too much to bear[00:01:45]
And I can see him sit on his lonely old bus[00:01:48]
And he's got his problems just like any of us[00:01:51]
Well he'd just take a deep breath[00:01:56]
And then let it all go[00:01:57]
Take another deep breath and let them all go[00:02:01]
And he'd take another deep breath[00:02:03]
And he'd hold it[00:02:06]
And I bet he'd feel hungry in a way that seems strange[00:02:13]
Yes hungry for all the things[00:02:18]
That he just can't change[00:02:20]
Like the time he passed out in is own bedroom[00:02:22]
And his ex-wife sewed him up in the sheets[00:02:26]
And she beat him with a broom and he forgave her[00:02:28]
And you think that's rough well then the IRS came[00:02:32]
And they took away all of his stuff[00:02:35]
They took his golf course and his recording studio [00:02:38]
And he just went out[00:02:42]
And did another four thousand show[00:02:43]
When it's all coming down on you[00:02:46]
I think you better ask yourself what would Willie do[00:02:49]
What would Willie do [00:02:58]
He traveled so far with nothing but a song and an old guitar[00:03:00]
And a tour bus and some semi-trucks [00:03:07]
And thirty crew men and a little bit of luck[00:03:10]
He loves all the people the ugly and the randy[00:03:14]
If you don't believe me take a look at the family[00:03:18]
And they'll tell you that it's true[00:03:22]
When your skies are gray what would Willie[00:03:26]
What would Willie do[00:03:34]
He'd take a little time[00:03:36]
And talk to old rooser as he'd drive on down the line[00:03:38]
There's millions down that road [00:03:42]
And with a word he's gonna lighten their load[00:03:46]
He loves all the people no matter their races[00:03:50]
Hell he even had a hit country song with Julio Iglesias[00:03:54]
And that ain't easy to do [00:03:59]
When it's all too much [00:04:02]
What would Willie[00:04:05]
When the game gets tough what would Willie[00:04:06]
When they call your bluff what would Willie do[00:04:10]
