The Facts of Life by Willie Nelson
If you had to give America a voice, it's been said more than once, that voice would be Willie Nelson's. For more than fifty years, he's taken the stuff of his life--the good and the bad--and made from it a body of work that has become a permanent part of our musical heritage and kept us company through the good and the bad of our own lives. So it's fitting, and cause for celebration, that he has finally set down in his own words a book that does justice to his great gifts as a storyteller. In The Facts of Life, Willie Nelson reflects on what has mattered to him in life and what hasn't. He also tells some great dirty jokes. The result is a book as wise and hilarious as its author.
Willie Nelson was born April 30, 1933 and grew up in Abbott, TX. A country singer/songwriter, he developed his own style of music combining rock and roll, jazz, western swing, and folk. In the 1970s he partnered with Waylon Jennings to form an offshoot genre of country music called outlaw country. Willie's chart topping songs include Good Hearted Woman, If You've Got the Money, I've Got the Time, Mammas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys, and On the Road Again.
