One night I had a backstage pass to the Willie Nelson Show
There were wackoes and weirdoes and dingbats and dodoes
And athletes and movie stars and David Allan Coe
There was leather and lace and every minority race
With a backstage pass to the Willie Nelson Show
Kristofferson got an offer for a movie promoters closed another deal or two
Waylon got a call from his son Shooter and he went home the minute he was through
I moved with the mob at intermission
To the green room where you see who you can see
There were has-been's and would-be's and never-were's
Paupers punks and millionaires and me
There were wackoes and weirdoes and dingbats and dodoes
And athletes and movie stars and David Allan Coe
There was leather and lace and every minority race
With a backstage pass to the Willie Nelson Show
Hells Angels blocked the traffic to the building
In order for the beer truck to come through
And waitin' in the wings to sing with Willie were hopeful stars of flickering magnitude
There was a singer Willie knew back in the fifties
Who once paid him fifty dollars for a song
There were women who once did and some who still would
I heard one ask did Connie come along
There were wackoes and weirdoes and dingbats and dodoes
And athletes and movie stars and David Allan Coe
There was leather and lace and every minority race
With a backstage pass to the Willie Nelson Show
I wish you could've been there well maybe you were
Uma noite eu tive uma entrada para o backstage do Willie Nelson Show
Havia malucos e esquisitos e dingbats and dodoes
E atletas e estrelas de filmes e David Allan Coe
Havia couro e rendas e cada raça minoritária
Com uma entrada para o backstage do Willie Nelson Show
Kristofferson recebeu uma oferta por promotores de cinema fechou outro acordo ou dois
Waylon recebeu um telefonema de seu filho Shooter e ele foi para casa no mesmo momento
Eu me movi com a multidão no intervalo
Para a sala verde onde você vê quem você pode ver
Havia um iria e será e nunca foi
Indigentes punks e milionários e eu
Havia malucos e esquisitos e dingbats and dodoes
E atletas e estrelas de filmes e David Allan Coe
Havia couro e rendas e cada raça minoritária
Com uma entrada para o backstage do Willie Nelson Show
Hells Angels bloqueou o tráfego para o prédio
Para o caminhão de cerveja passar
E esperando nas asas para cantar com Willie eram estrelas de esperança de cintilação magnitude
Havia um cantor Willie sabia de volta na década de cinquenta
Que uma vez pagou cinquenta dólares por uma música
Havia uma mulher que fez e uma que ainda faria
Eu ouvi uma pergunta que Connie viria
Havia malucos e esquisitos e dingbats and dodoes
E atletas e estrelas de filmes e David Allan Coe
Havia couro e rendas e cada raça minoritária
Com uma entrada para o backstage do Willie Nelson Show
Eu gostaria que você estivesse lá bem, talvez você estava
