I was lost in trouble and strife, I heard a voice and it changed my life And now it's a brand new day, and I ain't afraid to say You're not alone when you're down and out And I think you know who I'm talking about When I don't know how I'll get through I ask myself what would Willie do
What would Willie do, well he'd travel so far with nothing but a song and his old guitar And a tour bus and some semi-trucks, thirty crew men and a little bit of luck Well he loves all the people, the ugly and the randy If you don't believe me take a look at the family And they'll tell you that it's true When skies are gray what would Willie do
Well long ago he came unto us, his words were simple but they went right through us And the whole world sang along, but then they didn't want to hear his songs He was gone and we thought we'd lost him But he grew his hair and he moved to Austin And all of the people smiled, they came to hear him sing from miles Like a miracle all those rednecks and hippies From New York City down to Mississippi Stood together and raised a brew When it's all gone wrong what would Willie do
You know sometimes I wonder when I ain't gettin' nowhere What would old Willie do when it all gets too much to bear And I can see him on his lonely old tour bus And he's got his problems just like any of us Well he'd just take a deep breath and then he'd let it all go And he'd take another deep breath and let it all go And he'd take another deep breath...and he'd hold it Ah and I bet he'd feel hungry in a way that seems strange Yeah hungry for all the things that he just can't change Like the time he passed out in is own bedroom And his wife sewed him up in the sheets and beat him with a broom and he forgave her And you think that's rough, well then the IRS came and they took away all of his stuff They took his golf course and his recording studio, and he just went out and did another show So when it's all coming down on you You better ask yourself what would Willie do
What would Willie do, well he'd take a little time And talk to old rooser as he'd drive on down the line And there's millions down that road, and with a word he's gonna lighten their load He loves all the people no matter their races Hell he even had a hit country song with Julio Iglesias And that ain't easy to do, so when it's all too much, what would Willie When the game gets tough what would Willie When they call your bluff what would Willie doTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
