Willie's Birthday Song

Nathaniel Rateliff

"This is a song we wrote
For a good friend of ours
We all feel he's done a lot for us
A lot for the world
I hope you enjoy it
We'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 seventy-five the time of the preacher
When the red headed stranger appeared
Rode into town blue eyes a shining
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 song's 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

Now the world's gone crazy
But we still got Willie
And all the good things he's done for us here
