Sometimes you read the news and you just have to write a song!
Lyrics
Well they busted Willie on his bus Now I wonder what that says bout the rest of us Take a fine old man and throw him in jail Just because takes a little inhale Well I wonder what Willie was smoking that day When the Texas police had to have their way you'd think at some age you'd get left alone Well its kinda like bustin an old folks home It's gotta be a little bad karma To put Willie Nelson in Jail Who esle cares for the farmer Who else cares if they fail Well I heard old Willie got out on bail they'll be following him over hill and dale His buddy says he's fine, lost a little weight Six or seven ounces, give or take Willie's at an age he probably don't care To change his ways or cut his hair With all the bad that goes on in this land You'd think they could bust a real outlaw band It's gotta be a little bad karma To put Willie Nelson in Jail Who esle cares for the farmer Who else cares if they fail Last we saw of Willie, he's was headed out of town Had the window shades of his bus clean down Window in the back cracked a little bit Do ya think ol'e Willie's still smokin that sh** ? So the Texas Rangers didn't fix a thing Pullin their guns on the Outlaw King Willie might wonder will they cut me a break and thinkin bout the next toke he's gonna take It's gotta be a little bad karma To put Willie Nelson in Jail Who else cares for the farmer Who else cares if they fail
