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 »

I wanna live fast, love hard, die young
And leave a beautiful memo-ry.

I wanna live fast, love hard, die young
And leave a beautiful mem-o-ry
Don't want slow walkin' or sad singin'
Let 'em have a jub-i-lee
I wanna leave a lot of happy women
A-thinkin' pretty thoughts of me
I wanna live fast, love hard, die young
And leave a beautiful memo-ry.

I got a hot-rod car and a cowboy suit
And I really do get around
I got a little black book and the gals look cute
And I know the name of ev'ry spot in town
I wanna find 'em, fool 'em, leave 'em
An' let 'em do the same to me
I wanna live fast, love hard, die young
And leave a beautiful memo-ry

I wanna live fast, love hard, die young
And leave a beautiful memory
I'm a wampus cat let me grab my hat
And baby come aiong with me
We're gonna do some fancy steppin'
We're really goin' on a spree
I wanna live fast, love hard, die young
And leave a beautiful memory

Now you may not approve of the things I do
But it really don't bother me
But don't ever think you can tie me down
I'm gonna stay footloose and fancy free
So jump back, make tracks, move out
An' let the pretty gals at me
I wanna live fast, love hard, die young
And leave a beautiful memory
