willie nelson - 1000 wedding
It was a $1000 wedding
Supposed to be
Held the other day and
With all the invitations sent
The young bride went away
When the groom
Saw people passing notes
Not unusual, he might say
But where are
The flowers for my baby
I'd even like to see
Her mean old mama
And why ain't there a funeral
If you're gonna act that way
I hate to tell you
How he acted when the news arrived
He took some friends out drinking
And it's lucky they survived
Well, he told them
Everything there was to
Tell there along the way
And he felt so bad
When he saw the traces
Of old lies still on their faces
So why don't someone here
Just spike his drink
Why don't you do him in some old way
Supposed to be a funeral
It's been a bad, bad day
The Reverend Dr. William Grace
Was talking to the crowd
All about the sweet child's holy face
And the saints who sung out loud
And he swore the fiercest beasts
Could all be put to sleep
The same silly way
And where are
The flowers for the girl
She only knew she loved the world
And why ain't there one lonely horn
And one sad note to play
Supposed to be a funeral
It's been a bad, bad day
Supposed to be a funeral
It's been a bad, bad day
willie nelson - a horse called music
High on a mountain in western Montana
A silhouette moves 'cross a cinnamon sky
Riding alone on a horse he called Music
With a song on his lips, and a tear in his eye
He dreams of a time, and a lady that loved him
And how he would sing her sweet lullabies
But we don't ever ask him
And he never talks about her
Guess it is better to just let it slide
But sang "ooh" to the ladies
And ooh, he made some sigh
Now he rides away on a horse he called Music
With a pain in his heart and a tear in his eye
He rode the Music from Boston to Bozeman
For not too much money, but way to much ride
But those were the days when a horse he called Music
Could jump through the moon and sail across the sky
Now all that's left is a time-old worn cowboy
With nothin' more than the sweet by-and-by
And trailing behind, is a horse with no rider
A horse he calls memories that she used to ride
And he sang "ooh" to the ladies
And ooh, he damn near made some fall right down and die
Now he rides away on a horse he called Music
With a pain in his heart and a tear in his eye
High on a mountain in western Montana
Two crosses cut, through a cinnamon sky
Marking the place where a horse he called Music
Lays with a cowboy in the sweet by-and-by...
willie nelson - always on my mind
Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could have
Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should have
If I made you feel second best
Girl I'm sorry I was blind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
Maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
Tell me, tell me that your
Sweet love hasn't died
And give me
Give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied
satisfied
Little things I should have
Said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind....

Climb aboard a butterfly,
An' take off on the breeze,
Let your worries flutter by,
An' do the things you please,
In a land where dollar bills,
Are fallin' off the trees,
On a dreamer's holiday!
Every day for breakfast,
There's a dish of scrambled stars,
An' for lunchin' you'll be munchin'
Rainbow candy bars,
You'll be livin' a la mode,
On Jupiter and Mars,
On a dreamer's holiday!
Make it a long vacation,
Time, there is plenty of,
You need no reservation,
Just bring along the one you love!
Help yourself to happiness,
An' sprinkle it with mirth,
Close your eyes an' concentrate,
An' dream for all you're worth,
You will feel terrific,
When you get back down to earth,
From a dreamer's holiday!

willie nelson - a whiter shade of pale
We skipped the light fandango
And turned cartwheels cross the floor.
I was feeling kind of seasick
The crowd called out for more.
The room was humming harder
And the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
The waitress brought a tray
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first so ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale.
She said "There is no reason,
And the truth is plain to see",
But I wandered through my playing cards
And would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
Although both my eyes were open
They might just just have well been closed.
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
Her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale.
[The following are additional lyrics
as sung in concert]
She said she wanted shore leave
Tho in truth we were at sea
So I took her by a looking glass
And forced her to agree
Saying you must be the mermaid
Who took Neptune for a ride
Well she smiled at me so sadly
That my anger straightway died
And so it was, etc?
willie nelson - afraid
Afraid to tell you how much I care afraid I'll need you and you won't be there
I'd love to take you into my heart but something tells me we would only part
I loved and lost just one love ago I paid the cost and it hurt me so
A heart gets careless when vows are made I want to love you but I'm so afraid
[ piano - guitar ]
I loved and lost...
willie nelson - american tune
Many's the time I've been mistaken and many times confused
Yes and I've often felt forsaken and certainly misused
Oh but I'm alright I'm alright just weary to my bones
Still you don't expect to be bright and bon vivant
So far away from home so far away from home
Don't know a soul who has not been battered
Don't have a friend who feels at ease
I don't know a dream that's not been shattered or driven to its knees
Oh but it's alright it's alright for we've lived so well so long
Still when I think of the road we're traveling on I wonder what's gone wrong
I can't help it I wonder what's gone wrong
And I dreamed I was dying I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
Looking back down at me smiled reassuredly
I dreamed I was flying high up above my eyes could clearly see
The statue of liberty sailing away to sea
And I dreamed I was flying
We come on the ship they call the Mayflower come on the ship that sails the moon
We come in the age's most uncertain hours and sing an American tune
Oh but it's alright it's alright can't be forever blessed
Still tomorrow's gonna be another working day and I'm trying to get some rest
That's all I'm trying to get some rest
[ guitar ]
willie nelson - angel flying too close to the ground
If you had not have fallen
Then I would not have found you
Angel flying too close to the ground
And I patched up your broken wing
And hung around a while
Tried to keep your spirits up
And your fever down
I knew someday that you would fly away
For love's the greatest healer to be found
So leave me if you need to
I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground
Fly on, fly on past the speed of sound
I'd rather see you up
Than see you down
Leave me if you need to
I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground
willie nelson - are there any more real cowboys
[ with Neil Young ]
Are there any more real cowboys left out in these hills
Will the fire hit the iron one more time
And will one more dusty pickup comin' rolling down the road
With a load of feed before the sun gets high
Well I hope that working cowboy never dies
Not the one that's snortin' cocaine when the honky tonk's all closed
But the one that prays for more rain heaven knows
That the good feed brings the money and the money buys the clothes
Not the diamond sequins shining on TV
But the kind the working cowboy really needs
[ harmonica ]
Are there any more country families still working hand in hand
Trying hard to stay together and make a stand
Well the rows and rows of houses come creepin' up on the land
Where the cattle graze and old grey barn still stands
Are there any more real cowboys in this land
Are there any more real cowboys in this land
willie nelson - are you sure
Oh, look around you
Look down the bar from you
At the faces that you see
Are you sure that this is where you want to be?
These are your friends
But are they real friends?
Do they love you as much as me
Are you sure that this is where you want to be?
You seem in such a hurry to live this kind of life
And you've caused so many pain and misery
But look around you, take a good look
Just between you and me
Are you sure that this is where you want to be?
Please don't let my tears persuade you, I had hoped I wouldn't cry
But lately, teardrops seem a part of me
Oh, look around you, take a good look
At all the lonely used-to-be's
Are you sure that this is where you want to be?
willie nelson - autumn leaves
The falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands I used to hold
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I?ll hear old winter?s song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
C?est une chanson, qui nous ressemble
Toi tu m?aimais et je t?aimais
Nous vivions tous, les deux ensemble
Toi que m?aimais moi qui t?aimais
Mais la vie sépare ceux qui s?aiment
Tout doucement sans faire de bruit
Et la mer efface sur le sable les pas des amants désunis
willie nelson - what can you do to me
What can you do to me now that you haven't done to me already
You broke my pride and made me cry out loud so what can you do to me now
I'm seeing things that I never thought I'd see you've opened up the eyes inside of me
How long have you been doing this to me I'm seeing sides of me that I can't believe
Someway somehow I'll make a man of me
And I will build me back the way that I used to be
Much stronger now the second time around cause what can you do to me now
What can you do to me now that you haven't done to me already already
You broke my pride made me cry out loud so what can you do to me now
