Summary:
"This is the
story
of
my
life
, told as clear as a Texas sky and in the same rhythm that I lived it. It's a
story
of restlessness and the purity of the moment and living right. Of
my
childhood in Abbott, Texas, to the Pacific Northwest, from Nashville to Hawaii and all the way back again. Of selling vacuum cleaners and encyclopedias while hosting radio shows and writing song after song, hoping to strike gold. It's a
story
of true love, wild times, best friends, and barrooms, with a musical sound track ripping right through it.
My
life
gets lived on the road, at home, and on the road again, tried and true, and I've written it all down from
my
heart to yours. Signed, Willie Nelson"--Provided by publisher.
