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 »

It was in the summer, not in the fall
I spent all my money on alcohol
And now you're gone, and I don't worry
Cause I'm sittin' on top of the world

No need of crying or holding out your hand
Cause I can get a woman quick as you can get a man
But you're gone, and I don't worry
Cause I'm sittin' on top of the world

If you see me stealing, don't you tell on me
I'm stealing back to old used-to-best
Cause now you're gone, and I don't worry
Cause I'm sittin' on top of the world
