WWW.AJDOWNING.COM

From AJ Downing's 2012 release, Good Day, Willie (Had We Never Been High) is an ode to everybody's hero, Willie Nelson. But! "If you think this song's about dope, I'm afraid you haven't much hope". The song touches on the end of times and religious beliefs. Downing's bucket list song...he's praying to be in Luck, TX (Willie's Town) when the walls come crashing down...

Lyrics...

Now if it's true what the Mayan say
Then these inded, are the end of days
Awe, I guess I'm ready
I can say it's been a hell of a ride
Now my family knows my love
Oh and so's the lord above
But there's just one thing I gotta do
Before it's time

Yeah, I wanna smoke weed with Willie
Sit around and pick and sing
Until the mornin light
About love, life and women
Awe, and years of good hard livin
And how it might have been
Had we never been high

See now Willie, he understands
The true measure of a man
It ain't about who you blow
But what you know
Give a little more than you take
And be good, for goodness sake
And you're sure to find the road
That takes you home

Yeah, I wanna smoke weed with Willie
Sit around and pick and sing
Until the mornin light
About love, life and women
Awe, and years of good hard livin
And how it might have been
Had we never been high

Now if you think this song's about dope
I'm afraid you haven't much hope
Awe, but then again
I ain't the one to judge
But should the good lord come again
Or a comet come rushin in
I don't know about you
But I'm prayin I'm in Luck

Yeah, I wanna smoke weed with Willie
Sit around and pick and sing
Until the mornin light
About love, life and women
Awe, and years of good hard livin
And how it might have been
Had we never been high

Awe, how it might have been
Had we never been high
