Thank You Lord for Willie Nelson

Thank you lord for Willie Nelson
He’s been a hero indeed
A champion for the farmer
An inspiration to you and me
Thank you lord for Willie Nelson
Today his songs still ring true
I want to live my life with honor
And ask myself what would Willie do?

When My Blue eyes are crying in the rain
Willie’s words have eased my pain
I’ve heard his voice time and again
The red headed stranger’s been a life long friend

Now Willie may have smoked a little pot
A little hell Willie’s smoked a lot
Legend says he rolled one in the white house
Balls of steel are what Willie’s got

Thank you lord for Willie Nelson
He’s been a hero indeed
A champion for the farmer
An inspiration to you and me
Thank you lord for Willie Nelson
Today his songs still ring true
I want to live my life with honor
And ask myself what would Willie do? Over a thousand farms were saved by this man
That’s a thousand families that got a second chance
When the banks told the farmer’s they were thru
Willie told the Banks “yeah well fuck you”

I’m not saying he don’t have flaws
No ones perfect Lord and I mean no one
But I know you had a plan
When you put Willie in a band

So Thank you lord for Willie Nelson
He’s been a hero indeed
A champion for the farmer
An inspiration to you and me
Thank you lord for Willie Nelson
Today his songs still ring true
I want to live my life with honor
And do the things, I know Willie’ld do.
