Willie Nelson

Willie Hugh Nelson (pronounced /wɪli nɛlsən /; born April 30, 1933) is an American country music singer-songwriter, as well as an author, poet, actor, and activist. The critical success of the album Shotgun Willie (1973), combined with the critical and commercial success of Red Headed Stranger (1975) and Stardust (1978), made Nelson one of the most recognized artists in country music. He was one of the main figures of outlaw country, a subgenre of country music that developed at the end of the 1960s as a reaction to the conservative restrictions of the Nashville sound. Nelson has acted in over 30 films, co-authored several books, and has been involved in activism for the use of biofuels and the legalization of marijuana. more »

There are some saints that have been forgotten
Like most of my drunken prayers
They say there's a heaven 
Somewhere above the yonder
Where there's no more crosses to bear

Now, there's ghosts all along the highways
And there's storms out on the sea
I only hope is somewhere in that heaven
Someone is sayin' a prayer for me

I've been ridin' stone blind horses
Never seen a reason to believe
Hey sweet Genevieve, say a prayer for me
And the wild young cowboys, old drunks
Paramours and thieves

The high slurred whistle of a red winged blackbird
Sounds like he's singin', oh, that I might die
It's a song for those who have fallen
Unrepentant and with no more alibis

I've been ridin' stone blind horses
Never seen a reason to believe
Hey sweet Genevieve, say a prayer for me
And the wild young cowboys, old drunks
Paramours and thieves

Hey sweet Genevieve, say a prayer for me
And the wild young cowboys, old drunks
Paramours and thieves
