Chorus:
Loving her was easier than anything I'll ever do again
Waking in the morning to the feeling of her fingers on my skin
Wiping out the traces of the people and the places that I"ve been
Teaching me that yesterday was something that I never thought of trying
Talking of tomorrow and the money, love and time we had to spend

Who - of all of singer songwriters who ever lived - wrote better poetry and soul-moving lyrics than Kris Kristofferson??
Willies guitar playing is as distinct as his singing. When u hear it u know it’s him.
Kristofferson does not get enough credit as a poet.
@ DITTO!!!!!🥺🥺🤑🤑 👀
And to think Kris doubted his singing ability and his equal stature within the group. He belongs on the Country Mount Rushmore as much as his heroes.
If there was one gig I wish was at.
When I first heard Willie playing that guitar solo I cried 😢
It's 2024 i still love the highway man ill be 79 in April.
Same here, I will be 78 on May 13th 2024 !
I can't get enough of listening to them.Saturday 4 May 2024 ❤ from Albania 🇦🇱.
63 and love The Highway Men.
I’ll be 86 on 06-08-24, and I Love them more than ever. I listen to this version and another, much earlier. The both bring tears of sweet memories to mind.

STANDING ON THE SHOULDERS OF GIANTS, AND THEYRE BACKING BAND WAS BRILLIANT.
I never appreciated these amazing individuals until recently. Of course the hits that were enjoyed on the radio. But absolutely nothing beats the footage of the live show we now wish we could have had forever, the highwaymen😢❤ ..Waylon, I would have sold my kidney to have had a night with 😂😂😂..lets hope heaven is as good as we think ❤
Incredible.
We won't see or hear this again in our lifetime. Sad to say... but true.
Well like this we surely will, because their voices in this altered reuploaded version have been tempered with. Unfortunately because of reuploaded autotuned and pitch corrected old live performances like this by the anti-human record companies, their real live performances and how they really sounded live will soon be forgotten as all original material is being replaced as we speak. This is unfortunately an altered dehumanized version.
No wonder his son Lukas is becoming an accomplished guitar player when you have instruction from one of the best.
An appreciation of lovers past and present. So sad they're almost all gone. At least my wife got some tickets to see the last Highwaymen at Bethel Woods this summer.
He's a poet, he's a picker, he's prophet, he's a pusher, a pilgrim and preacher and a problem when he's stoned.
Every Sunday in my house in the UK was Country day. My mum and Dad loved it. My brother, sister and I groaned.
My dad would say...’just listen’...
It’s stuck, and they are some of the most beautiful memories I have.
Haggard, Nelson, Glaser brothers, George Jones, Hank Williams...
All music has something for someone...it’s just that Country music has a little something extra for me.
Probably because of those lovely childhood memories.
That’s nice!
I'm 26 years old, and if I were told to pick just one moment to attend from the past, I would choose this one without a second thought. Without even considering other places I could go to.
kris never had that good a voice, but man no one can do this song like him. it's almost like he wrote it so it would fit his voice.
What an awesome combination of great guys.
This is Majestic at it's best. Maybe never happen again.
R.I.P. Waylon and John.
Gone but will never be forgotten.

The life of Kris is an example to everyone to follow your follow your dreams, to turn your back on a successful army career, give it all up to work as a janitor to try and meet Johnny Cash and hopefully get him to sing his songs. His music has been part of my life since 1970 and I feel blessed to have heard it.
I was in my early-mid 20's in the early 90's going to Vegas, the river, Palm Springs, etc with a big great group of friends, and not much of a care in the world. Listening to Willie on the Colorado River early am, or at dusk, with the beautiful red rock formations and glass water is an experience in itself that almost seems religious. I know you shouldn't think too much on the past, but (IMO) something is F ing missing in society today, and I believe it's because with todays technology, people are not as reliant on other people and we seem to be forgetting that strong friendships/bonds with one another is a much more important thing, in terms of a persons well being than anything material, or having a large # of followers on your channel!
Attending this concert today for the 600th time
Me too!
@@jennifercole6045 Ye, and that's me too, can't stay away
me too, but not that many yet😊
Awh, I am a 67 yr old woman and at different times in my life, I have been deeply in love with all of these beautiful souls, they saved me through the tough times, bless them and still love them, TY!!! ❤😊
You are my age.my friend and I tried to crash a party at Johnny Cashes house once. He had a pool shaped like a guitar. My friend was barefoot with no shirt on so we didnt stand a chance of getting in.
Me too!
Masters really masters
I’m 51 and regret that by the time I was mature enough to appreciate country music, the highwaymen were just legends.
@@ruth4010You should have been inviited in because OF that 😆😉
There will never be country legends such as these four "outlaws". Together as The Highwaymen or individually as Johnny, Waylon, Willie & Kris they are the best of the best.
I agree !
Totally agree, but also check out the Flatlanders, another bunch of great solo artists getting together
I will be 64 this year and I have always loved the highwaymen
When music was easy to listen and was not violent
Brings tears to my eyes. Great entertainers, the likes of which will never be seen again. A truly wonderful era.
Oh no! What have they done? Not the artists, the producers. Why the hell did they think pitch correction was going to improve this recording? They're stealing the soul from these wonderful artists.
I didn't know this, but earlier this year 2022, Jerry Lee Lewis was induction into thr Country music hall of fame, he just passed and I was watching his funeral, did you know he was ill and couldn't make his own Induction, and Kris Kristofferson got in his car in and drove down to visit him and give him his award in person. Kris, what a human being, great man. What great American icons,
for Life ,Liberty, Pursuing the happiest of life.
I am a veteran, I have nothing but straigh respect for these amazing men, and their value of God,life,family, and friends.
kristofferson can find a truth , give it a voice and a simple melody , and suddenly there is a vision of something brittle, ragged, and holy . this is the mark of a true poet .
No one can play a guitar like Willie and no one ever will again.
Without a doubt. Brilliant
yes, that is right!
Nylon strings ,make a big difference.
For me this is the greatest country concert. They killed every song, not one wrong note. Thanks for blessing the world.
Love the way Kris looks over at them!
Hi Marilyn
It’s March 3, 2022. Our world is a mess. An utter, complete mess. I’m so sad. I come to videos like this because they remind me of a childhood when I was happy and free. My heart breaks knowing my children will never understand what it feels like to not be tied to technology, when kids played in the streets and came home for supper, a few channels on TV, when the nightly news was NEWS... and old shows with music and laughter brought families together once a week. Saturday morning cartoons and soccer games. When burgers, fries , and ice cream were a special treat.... and .25 cents.
I’m full of tears today. I yearn for the beautiful life of not that long ago. For myself, for my children, for all of the worlds children.
Hello there, how are you doing today?
Where are you writing from?
There’s not a women in that audience who doesn’t this song would be about her…
The look on Kris's face as he watches Willie bring his masterpiece to life is unreal 🙂
Obviously ft
Yes, I noticed that look, too ... and, of course, Kris was hearing Willie's natural voice, unedited by the pitch correction that has been applied in this TH-cam video upload. If that ain't sad, then I don't know what is.
I pray that God blesses and protects all those people who are reading my Comment now. Wish y'all the best.
Mount Rushmore of country music!
Just the way Waylon looks at willie is beautiful, such love and respect for eachother
One of the finest performances ever by Willie Nelson. His guitar playing simply cannot be described with words alone. What a great performance!
Regardless of lyrics, has to be delivered by the soul God. Sent,
That's the best Waylon had looked in years.
Willie and Kris still with us. Thank God
Sure thing, legends all. I had one chance to see this stellar ensemble The Highwaymen, I blew it.....
Greetings from Ireland .
Kris has announced his retirement from touring, got to see him the last few times- the great songwriter of our time!
They all live in our hearts and memories!!!
Just thank Willie and Kris. That's enough.
D$#
I love how Waylon watches Willie play the guitar and claps! I could watch this video over and over again…and I do!
Hello 👋 Connie.
Now I'm an old Rock Vet. This however is the best super group of all time!
Oh yes oh my goodness this what music 🎵🎶🎶 go Willie Nelson, HighWay Men❤❤❤❤❤❤🌹💐✨🙏🙌👍
Wouldn't you like to have been able to be there WHEN THESE GUYS WERE REHEARSING TOGETHER LONG BEFORE THEIR CONCERT!!!
JUST WATCHING AND LISTENING AS THEY SAT AROUND IN A CIRCLE ON BAR STOOLS PLAYING THEIR SONGS, REMINISCING, AND JUST HAVING A GREAT TIME LAUGHING AND JOKING WITH EACH OTHER!
THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE THAN THE PRICE OF A CONCERT TICKET. NO, MAKE THAT TWO CONCERT TICKETS!!!
Reggie Young saying to the drummer "Stay exactly where you are guys, Willie will land on the bar in his own time"
willie steals the show here, singing and playing trigger, masterful.
Why mess with greatness?

In Kris Kristopherson's autobiography, he says at the end of it, "Well, I could put a song together", so humble and wonderful.
KK is probably the greatest artiss who ever stepped on earth surface! I'm so very glad that I see a comment about him!
Kris is a genius at writing songs. It’s such a pleasure to see all these legends performing together. RIP Waylon and Johnny. We’re blessed to still have Willie and Kris still with us.
always go see willie perfom any chance i get
theyll never be gone, there spirit's are here, and thanks to youtube we can watch em over and over like they never left
Old songwriters never die....they just decompose...
Yous are so lucky to be American, I'm from Scotland and have loved these men most of my life, and never got to see one of them live 😢x
Coming up on our 35th anniversary. Truer words we’re never sung.
Can'y get enough of this song, the guitar solo from Willie is just incredible, simple but right on.
Willie was right. Kris is their greatest poet. This version can't be bettered. Class in every way.
Whether you are cutting donuts in ur xz yard or just riding down the road. This is good stuff
....
They have set a very high bar for future country singers so far in 2022 nobody has not come close to these terrific singers, I'm sure some young country singer will astonish future Americans but he's not here yet and yes they all admire each other, Hell they were all very famouse
The love and respect that Waylon has for Willie is so apparent in this video.
When Willie plays that guitarr and hits that dark tunes, everybody knows that its on. One of the best performances ever from his side. And knowing that dude is still alive is something else...when Willie killed that solo and the faces of the other legends, magic
All i can say this is brilliant from Northern Ireland 19 10 2023
Even Waylon was in awe of Willie’s picking! Hoss that’s saying something!
Willie's guitar solo is something I could be listening to in my last minute of being alive.
That awestruck look of "Damn, Wille! Sing it, brother!" from Kris is just priceless. This is country music that just can't be matched by music nowadays.
A Rhodes Scholar! A poet!
*_who knew Willy was such a maestro guitarist?..._*
Hopefully, somewhere on TH-cam, there is another version of this with the real Willie Nelson/Kris Kristofferson vocals. After the pitch correction that has been done, you can tell it was originally Nelson and Kristofferson, but it just doesn't sound right. It sounds more like a computer generated simulation of their voices.
The phasing, pauses between words, that is characteristic of Willie is still there, so you can tell it's really him, but Willie has always been known for putting a lot of emotion into his songs, and the pitch correction removes that. Kristofferson just doesn't sound right at all.
@@Drycleanerguy Yep.
I have believed for a long time that Kris Kristofferson is and will remain one of the great poets of our time. His lyrics dive deep into the heart. His music resounds and the lyrics touch the soul. Thank you sir.
Well written comment, Robert. Your words captured Mr. Kristofferson's genius. His writing touches our soul with or without the music. The music just gives the words another layer. Thank you again for the comment, sir.
I agree completely. I grew up listening to all of these great men and although I respect them all, I truly believe that Mr. Kristofferson's poetry will ring strong throughout time.
I couldn't have said it any better myself the song brings tears to my eyes very beautiful
I have only started to listen to him in the last year or so, and learning to play his songs. I totally agree. The best lyricist ever in my opinion x
Very well put and I couldn't agree with you more
I'm a grown ass man. Why am I crying?
Totally normal :) Only weak people don't cry.
I wish my wifevwas that 31 yrs i still love her the same way
Look how happy Kris is. And you can see the respect from the boys. The man is an Icon, some of his songs made them icons as well as others. Willy is awesome on this, we won't ever see talent like this again folks, enjoy the hell out of it while you can.
Classic CW like no other! Now 🔙 to 🐻🐨 watch ⌚!!(not 🚫 to be confused 🤔 with Baywatch)!!
Yep!!!!
@Jeff Brewer : you can say that again ! Individually & Collectively , they are " an era unto themselves " & you're right, we won't see talent like this again😉 . Hoping their health holds out so that they can continue to do what they do best. A hearty "Thank You " to them for sharing their talents & spreading ❤️ throughout the world !! From NYC .
Could not agree more.
Ah, aren’t hey just so great. Such talent on that stage. Never tire of listening and watching the love they have for each other. Their music will last forevermore.
All great performers, but Kris is the greatest all-rounder. Superb musician, songwriter, singer and actor. There is nobody else in his class.
Definitely a genius
The best rift Willie has ever done. Right there. Done. I so wish I could have been there.
And... don't forget the quality of the back-musicians!
I say Love it
That's not good enough
what I really mean is this one is showing how much respect Waylon And Kriss Kristofferson showed how they respect Willie's playing . I think these guys did thier best ever on this one .wish I could just put them in a bottle and capture all of them forever
The greatest of the Outlaws Kudos 👏 to all of them .
Never ever ever gets old
Drumming for Willie would be a real challenge.
😊😅😅😅😅😂
You would never forget that night as long as you lived!
I CAN Listen to THESE " 4 " GUY'S... .... Every Day All Day Long and never get tired of their MUSIC 🎵 🎶 🙋 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 💖 🎶
Hello 👋 Diana.
Four top musicians and a support band. That's all it takes for absolute top music. No laser no flash no idiocy. Just music as music should be.
In the late 70’s 79 to be exact i had the privilege to meet Waylon in Texarkana
I am over in England and I love Country music and never seem to tire of it. I first heard Chris whilst driving home from my the girl friendsjMj house
The unmistakable voice of Willie together with Kris is legendary!
Hi ,how are you doing,how is the weather treating you today,can we be friends if you don't mind?
Willie's guitarplay is not from this planet.... WOW!!!!
That kind of love can be the number one cause of dying of a broken heart. Memories and hurt can take you there eventually.
😊😃 I'm very pleased to know I'm not the only one that loves the song but when last did you play it?
A national treasure
This has to be the apex of Kris's life. Look at his face as these amazing talents soulfully and perfectly render one of his least known but best songs. James 1:17, every one of the Highwaymen is a devout Christian.
Willies guitar has a legendary sound I’ll never forget it!!! This is country not like the BS they selling now. Four legends on stage. I believe Willies guitar is called Trigger.
The highwaymen is gone but not forgotten. There will never be another group to compare with the highwaymen. They were the ones that made the highwaymen a super country group. They will never ever be forgotten
Man, I Willie Nelson, one hell of a guitar player I must say I’ve always like to hear Willie Nelson play guitar, but the highway men were really a great sounding group, but look who was in it😁👍🏼🎸😎☮️✌🏻❤️
The way kris looks at Willie st the beginning, like "wait , did I really write this?" Lol
Highwaymen is a page out of American histiory every generation will go through.
this concert has to be in the top 3 of all time
I had this concert on video and played it till the film fell apart. Years later the BBC replayed it, so now have spanking new dvd version. One of my precious possessions.
It is quite the master piece
Best man band.
4 distinct voices yet harmonize so well together,Willie Nelson is a musical genius
Fantastic song done by true country performers.I cannot get enough of the ghiraar solo as done by Willie.
There are two supergroups that I wish I had seen live. These guys and the Traveling Wilburys.
Unfortunately people today have no idea what really is music
Waylon watching Willie tear it up on trigger and clapping......I love it.
The Missourian - but Waylon was very powerful in the part he sang.
Underrated guitarist willie, I was gonna rant about it but the music and this fat one chilled me out😂
@Crazy Horse75 Waylon did have great respect for other artists. He showed it often. He was and is a True Legend!

I am so thankful that all of these country music men were in my time. Willie, Johnny, Kris & Waylon - what more would you want. The absolute greatest of the great.
I'm grateful that my Dad who lived to be 96 years of age and both of my brothers lived long enough to hear and enjoy hearing and watching them and so many others that sang real country music. It brought them real enjoyment before they passed.

The greatest Country singers performing with the greatest country music songwriter.
Willies guitar. No words ❤
Never be another bunch like these guys. The way those boys watched Willie kill that solo was so reverent, so joyful. Country the way it was, and always should be.
Hell yeah
But never will be again
Does Willy play Trigger, or does Trigger play Willie? An unanswerable question.
@@robpurviance6391ciao Rob!🙋😊😘💘💘🌅
great solo willie long may you boys play
Willie is a musical genius. He writes the songs, he sings, and is also an amazing guitar player. When will people realize how amazing he is?
Willie’s guitar solo is beautiful. He’s such a great songwriter we tend to forget what he can do as an instrumentalist. Sings good too, eh?
