Blue Rock Montana/Red Headed Stranger

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 »

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Well, he rode into Blue Rock, dusty an' tired,
And got him a room for the night.
He lay there in silence with too much on his mind.
Still hoping that he was not right.

But he found them that evening at a tavern in town,
In a quiet little out of the way place.
And they smiled at each other when he walked through the door.
And they died with their smiles on their faces.

They died with their smile on their face.

Red Headed Stranger.

Don't boss him, don't cross him.
He's wild in his sorrow,
He's riding an' hiding his pain.
Don't fight him, don't spite him,
Just wait till tomorrow,
Maybe he'll ride on again.
