Willie Nelson
You can't make a record if you ain't got nothin' to say.
Willie Nelson
After every tour, I think about hanging up the touring hat, and after a while of not working, I'm ready to play. I think I enjoy playing music more than I enjoy not playing music.
Willie Nelson
Nothing lasts forever, but old Fords and a natural stone.
Willie Nelson
There's a freedom you begin to feel the closer you get to Austin, Texas.
Willie Nelson
I'm drowning in whiskey river.
Willie Nelson
I see this [biodiesel] as a way for the farmer to grow fuel and food and put him back in business again
