Willie won't you teach me how to croon
How to write a song that touches the roof
Your voice is a blade cutting through the green haze
Teach me how
To do the same
Willie would you roll me a joint
In these high strung times I keep missing the point
Slow down, sit back, let the worries float pass
It along, Willie, give the tension some slack
Up all night
Blame it on the times
Crying in the rain of truth and lies
Always, on my on my mind
Strangers now on a midnight ride
Willie, please explain how to shred on guitar
These plucking patterns only get me so far
Is it sex is it drugs is it practice is it love
I wanna honky-tonk solo with the amp turned all the way
Up all night
Blame it on the times
Crying in the rain of truth and lies
Always, on my on my mind
Strangers now on a midnight ride
Willie, will we be on the road again?
I miss the stage almost as much as I miss my friends
Music to make and I can hardly wait
Mr. Willie Nelson, how long will the waiting take
Up all night
Blame it on the times
Crying in the rain of truth and lies
Always, on my on my mind
Strangers now on a midnight ride
Up all night
Blame it on the times
Crying in the rain of truth and lies
Always, on my on my mind
Strangers now on a midnight ride
