A lot of country music is sad. I think most art comes out of poverty and hard times. It applies to music. Three chords and the truth - that’s what a country song is. There is a lot of heartache in the world.

More quotes by Willie Nelson

Be gentle with your words - you can't take them back.
Willie Nelson
