Willie's Birthday Song

There's a song I wrote for a good friend of ours We all feel he's done alot for us Alot for the world Hope you enjoy it I'd love for you to sing along Pass me that joint, it's Willie's birthday Wipe away all of your tears Well, the world's gone crazy But we still got Willie And all the good things he's done for us here It was '75, the time of the preacher When the red-headed stranger appeared Rode into town, blue eyes a-shining And his memories measured in tears Hey Nashville, Hey Austin He's playing the songs we hold dear Now for all of these years So pass me that joint, it's Willie's birthday Wipe away all of your tears Now the world's gone crazy But we still got Willie And all the good things he's done for us here Now shotgun Willie wades through whiskey rivers Living in the promise land His heroes are cowboys, and the songs they're a-singing Bring joy and laughter again Hey Georgia, New Orleans This songs for your native son and all that he's done So pass me that joint, it's Willie's birthday Wipe away all of your tears Now the world's gone crazy But we still got Willie And all the good things he's done for us here Pass me that joint, it's Willie's birthday Wipe away all of your tears Now the world's gone crazy But we still got Willie And all the good things he's done for us here Pass me that joint, it's Willie's birthday Wipe away all of your tears Now the world's gone crazy But we still got Willie And all the good things he's done for us here Well, the worlds gone crazy But we still got Willie And all the good things he's done for us here
