I’m an old man, and it doesn’t take much these days to make me cry.
This song does it every time. Performed by many artists, it has never been done better than by Willie Nelson and his son, Lukas.
It would serve well as the coda to Willie’s life – or to any one’s for that matter.
“Yes, I understand
That every life must end.
As we sit alone
I know someday we must go.
Oh, I'm a lucky man
To count on both hands
The ones I love.
Some folks just have one.
Yeah, others they got none.
Let's just breathe.”
