Time of the Preacher (Theme)

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 »

But he could not forgive her
Though he tried and tried and tried
And the halls of his mem'ry
Still echoed her lies

And he cried like a baby
And he screamed like a panther
In the middle of the night
And he saddled his pony
And he went for a ride

It was a time of the preacher
In the year of O-one
Now the lesson is over
And the killin's begun
