Merle Haggard
Red Headed Rounder
[Verse 1]
Gave up on living forever
Willie said, "We're all gonna die"
So I sold all my music to Sony
Told all of my family goodbye
[Verse 2]
Went down to the edge of the water
And I took out my old .22
Willie came by, said "It’s too soon to die
"You've got a whole string of concerts to do"
[Chorus]
Well now he sleeps all day, plays his cards all night
Smokes marijuana 'cause it treats him right
Well that Red Headed Rounder, oh he’s a friend of mine
Well that Red Headed Rounder has a good time all of the time
[Verse 3]
Well he's got a place down south, [?] out west
Plays guitar [?]
Well that Red Headed Rounder, [?]
Well that Red Headed Rounder [?] guitar [?]
[Verse 4]
Well now Wille Nelson ain't Willie to me
He hits a home run every time he plays
Well that Red Headed Rounder, Lord he's a friend of mine
Well that Red Headed Rounder has a good time all of the time
[Chorus]
Well now he sleeps all day, plays his cards all night
Smokes marijuana 'cause it treats him right
Well that Red Headed Rounder, he's a friend of mine
Well that Red Headed Rounder has a good time all of the time
