An eerie, moving, incredible song by one of rock n' roll's legends, Willie Nelson. I hope you all enjoy this video. I do NOT claim to own any of the material here, but the song was too good not to post.

"I wrote 'Jimmy's Song' when my friend and bass player, David Zettner, was drafted into the army during the Viet Nam War. I could have called it 'David's Song,' but 'Jimmy's Road' sounded more euphonious. Thank you, Chet Atkins, for that big word. He said that one time about some line I had written. At the time I didn't know what it meant — words that go together — but I said, 'Alright Chet, thanks.' I was relieved to find out later it was a good thing."

-- Willie Nelson
