Willie Nelson

Willie Hugh Nelson (pronounced /wɪli nɛlsən /; born April 30, 1933) is an American country music singer-songwriter, as well as an author, poet, actor, and activist. The critical success of the album Shotgun Willie (1973), combined with the critical and commercial success of Red Headed Stranger (1975) and Stardust (1978), made Nelson one of the most recognized artists in country music. He was one of the main figures of outlaw country, a subgenre of country music that developed at the end of the 1960s as a reaction to the conservative restrictions of the Nashville sound. Nelson has acted in over 30 films, co-authored several books, and has been involved in activism for the use of biofuels and the legalization of marijuana. more »

Well I met a California girl in Memphis
And she tried to take me upstairs for a ride
And she had to hold me right across her shoulder
And I just can't seem to get her off of my mind
These honky tonk women gonna give me give give me the honky tonk blues
She's a honky tonk woman give me give give me the honky tonk blues

Well I later did the same in New York City
And I had to pull out of some kind of a fight
And the lady she covered me with roses
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind
Honky tonk women...
[ fiddle ]
And she had to hold me...
She's a honky tonk woman...
Honky tonk women...
She's a honky tonk woman...
