Question about the Waylon Jennings reference
In the suicide letter that Kelly wrote she talks about something that Waylon Jennings said to Willie Nelson about dying. Was this a reference to a song? If so, What song?
shareI have the same question. I have every Willie song but not every Waylon song. Was this something he wrote or sang or what? In any case, I think it was beautiful. I hope someone more knowledgeable than us can help.
shareIf you see me getting smaller by Waylon Jennings
Willie we've been constant companions in all the light and shade
We have spent a million dollars to find out what we made
We have made the maidens marvel at the things we do and say
Down down and out brother up up and away
If you see me gettin' smaller I'm leavin' don't be grieving
Just got to get away from here
If you see me gettin' smaller don't worry I'm in no hurry I've got the right to disappear
God bless old Philadelphia they were standing in the rain
Out in front of the Main Point, a wet and lonely train
Who knows who they came to see a mad man full of beer
A four piece band and a charter bus my border-line career
If you see me gettin' smaller...
