"Official Video for “Last Leaf” by Willie Nelson from LAST LEAF ON THE TREE Order LAST LEAF ON THE TREE here: https://willienelson.lnk.to/LastLeafOnTheTreeID Music Video produced, animated, and edited by Micah & Alex Nelson (Spitball Pictures Productions) Song written by Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan © 2011 Jalma Music (ASCAP) Willie Nelson is now in his 7th decade as a songwriter, performer and recording artist, but one of his most underrated talents is song interpretation. Over his career he has tackled songs from across the world of music, making each his own. Now for his 76th solo studio album and 153rd album overall as he celebrates his 91st year, Willie turns his gaze to a collection of songs by rock legends, idiosyncratic singer songwriters, altrock heroes and indie folk artists. The result is a gorgeously cohesive rumination on loss, love and world-weary hope, perfectly complemented by spare and spooky musical production. Lovingly curated and produced by his son Micah Nelson, Last Leaf On The Tree finds Willie covering songs from moody indie rock (Beck), psych alt-pop (The Flaming Lips) and punk-informed folk (Sunny War, Micah’s Particle Kid) to meditative soul jazz (Nina Simone) and lesser known gems from legends like Tom Waits, Neil Young, Keith Richards and Warren Zevon. In addition, the album features new takes on one of Willie’s oldest songs (“The Ghost” from 1962) plus a new one penned with Micah (“The Color Of Sound”) that joins Willie’s collection of Zen-soaked classics. In addition to producing, Micah Nelson plays many of the instruments and even designed the album cover. He is joined by a host of celebrated musicians plus guest spots from legendary producer and musician Daniel Lanois, John Densmore of The Doors and harmonica master Mickey Raphael, who has played alongside Willie for over 50 years.

Lyrics: I could tell he'd had a tough life By the way he sat and stared And me, I'd come to push and shove So I pulled up a chair We talked of roads untraveled We talked of love untrue Of strings that come unraveled We were kings and kindred fools And just when I'd hit bottom That old man raised his glass Said at least we had our chances There's those who never have So here's to all the soldiers Who have ever died in vain The insane locked up in themselves And homeless down on Main To those who stand on empty shores And spit against the wind And those who wait forever For ships that don't come in He said it's only life's illusions That bring us to this bar To pick up these old crutches And compare each other’s scars 'Cause the things we're calling heartaches Hell, they're hardly worth our time We bitch about a dollar When there's those without a dime As he ordered one last round He said I guess we can't complain ‘Cause God made life a gamble And we're still in the game So here's to all the soldiers Who have ever died in vain The insane locked up in themselves The homeless down on Main To those who stand on empty shores And spit against the wind And those who wait forever For ships that don't come in And those who wait forever For ships that don't come in
