    Lyrics:
    Livin on the road my friend, is gonna keep you free and clean
    Now you wear your skin like iron
    Your breath as hard as kerosene
    You weren't your momma's only boy, but her favorite one it seemed
    She began to cry when you said goodbye
    And sank into your dreams
    Pancho was a bandit boy, his horse was fast as polished steel
    He wore his gun outside his pants
    For all the honest world to feel
    Pancho met his match, you know, on the deserts down in Mexico
    Nobody heard his dyin words, ah but that's the way it goes
    All the Federales say, they could've had him any day
    They only let him slip away, out of kindness, I suppose
    Lefty, he can't sing the blues all night long like he used to
    The dust that Pancho bit down south ended up in Lefty's mouth
    The day they laid poor Pancho low, Lefty split for Ohio
    Where he got the bread to go, there ain't nobody knows
    All the Federales say, they could've had him any day
    They only let him slip away, out of kindness I suppose
    The poets tell how old Pancho fell, and Lefty's livin in cheap hotels
    The desert's quiet, Cleveland's cold
    And so the story ends, we're told
    Pancho needs your prayers it's true, but save a few for Lefty too
    He only did what he had to do, and now he's growing old
    All the Federales say, they could've had him any day
    They only let him go so long, out of kindness I suppose
    A few gray Federales say, they could've had him any day
    They only let him go so long, out of kindness I suppose

      There's a real cool story about one of Merle's last concerts. Toby was there and Merle was failing, and he wasn't sure how long he could make it on stage. Toby told him he'd help out. Merle asked him how many of his songs he knew and Toby said, "Hell Merle, I know 'em all!" He ended up finishing the show for him.

      When you mentioned "west Oklahoma" I had to think for a bit to remember working there back in 1981. Guymon area. April. Thought I was going to see my first tornado (coming from Canada). A fairly dry and desolate place. Friendly people though. Oklahoma has brought us so many great entertainers!

      I made as far west as Laverne Oklahoma and was about 60 miles away from you in ,81. Oklahoma has produced some great artists . Leon Russell , Garth and Toby .. Reba Mcentire used to be a waitress and served my dad back in the day . Ronnie Dunn and Roy Clark lived near me and I did meet Ronnie just before he left for Nashville ...many , many others from our state @@chrisbenoit129

      Looking back, I'm thinkin "live like you were dyin" Tim McGraw song (idk who wrote it) is about Toby Keith. That's based on nothing at all, just sayin. Also you and I might've choked on the same dust. I lived in Boise City "at the turn of the century" and Amarillo since '05. Drove a flatbed over the road, probably delivered a million miles of drilling pipe and sacks of 'mud' from MT and ND to TX and LA (seen one or two oilfields)

    WOW!!! Do you complaining people want some "cheese with your whine". Most of the musicians that I play music around are amazed at the way Willie is able to break time and rhythm with his voice and guitar and come back to where the band has kept the back beat and rhythm. I will bet you can't do it!!!!!!

      No, I can't, but I don't bill myself as a singing star and charge lots of money for people to come listen to me slaughter a classic and be pitchy as hell. That guy on the right, whoever he is, was just gawd awful. If I'd been there and paid the gate, I'd have been asking for my money back.

      R. McBride The guy on the right is Toby Keith......a certified super star. All three are super stars. A live show can be a bit confusing if you try to compare it with a released studio recording. The timing will always be different. Just being in the same room with these guys is worth the ticket. RIP Haggard.

    I am so grateful we can still watch live performances such as these. Are they perfectly sung and played? No, but that’s the beauty of live music. Willie was picking that guitar like a boss, and Toby Keith knew he was on stage with two absolute legendary artists. That’s what made this special.

    RIP Townes...you suffered, for sure, and you weren't appreciated as you deserved, but by god you left us some serious music. I have Live at the Old Quarter on repeat; just Townes and his guitar, among friends... the way Townes should be heard.

      Townes, lead a troubling life, died too young as a result. Kinda thought he had that James Dean philosophy,
      " Live fast, die young and leave a good looking corpse. " Most everyone I know appreciate , Poncho and Leafty.

    Boy ol Townes wrote some great songs , this is one of his most popular. The Ballad of Ira Hayes is one of my favorite Townes song's. Merle and Willie do a fine job here , Haggard the great American poet

      Just going to leave Toby out? He is a legend himself, imo the most underappreciated country artists of all time and honestly i think he is #1 on my list. The people who were there that night are so freaking lucky.

    Ecclesiastes 4:12 “A cord of three strands is not easily broken.” These 3 men held each other up tied tightly. Merle was fading, Willie is 90 now and Toby battling stomach cancer. Praying Toby holds on as long as Merle and Willie. Prayers for Willie and Toby🙏🙏🙏🙏

    Had to do what we had to do. No truer words sung in a song. Ya hear these singers for over 50 years, can't help but feel sadness when they pass. Listening on the radio heading out for dove hunting early in the mornings with all the ones that have passed away also, hard not to shed a tear or two when ya hear that music.

    • @gwenyffyr
      @gwenyffyr ปีที่แล้ว

      @davidgarbersr8085,
      A serious question...why do you hunt doves? More trouble to clean than a squirrel, and almost no meat. I don't understand killing something I'm not going to eat.
