  • I was at garner state park a few years ago and danced with a beautiful girl to this song and saw her every night. unfortuneately i never worked up the courage to get her number. a year later i went back and we recognized each other. We fished and hiked together the entire week. We are going back again this spring break to see eachother! If she didn't live so far away I'd make her mine. This song brings back so many memories!

  • Although, I've never been there, I've heard two songs about Mendocino and I like both. Here is the other:

    Both are from Texas legends.

  • He's way too old for her, but they carry this off well. What great actors, as well as singers.

    How cold was it in that back yard? You can see their breath.

  • @ShanghaiJill It's smoke. Willie's passing it around.

  • makes me homesick.....but I'm in northern NY........Norcal Boy all the way

  • Shwang 3:33

  • I just love the way that Willie turns and smiles at 2:37. That's a really nice shot of him.

  • what a beautiful song

  • YET ANOTHER GEM BY ELTON JOHN'S LONG TIME SONG WRITING GENIUS THE ONE AND ONLY BERNIE TAUPIN!!

  • Lake County's way better Mendo

  • @LETSPLAYLIVE sure, if you are in meth

  • long live WILLIE

  • SOOOOOOO GOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!

  • that was just cool

  • My family has horses we love riding them especially on the beaches and on the trails.everytime i hear this song it reminds me of every ride we ever took.GOOD TIMES GOOD TIMES

  • I wanted to ride a horse, and then ride it through a county, city, or town. Also Listen to this song as I ride the horse too. Two are very good together. I have so much respect for Willie and Lee Ann. Love this song so much. 

  • GOD DAMN IT im sick of fucking advertisements!!

  • you know willie remembers back in the day a dime bag costing a dime and a quarter bag costing a quarter, and you could go to the movies fore 50 cents and that included your drink and popcorn..not to mention his school days goin to school and coming home both ways uphill......

  • 2 dislikes that must be a big mistake the thumbs down button is too close to the thumbs up button it should be moved.

    i would give anything to meet willie he is the greatest

  • @theFabaquarius1953 amen to that ..How can you hate this song ? youre right it's tooo Close lol

  • Who are the 2 two retards who thumbed this down? Jackasses.

  • They can't be singing about Mendocino County, CA you geographically retarded idiots! Listen to the words, "The sun sank west of the mendocino county line". Mendocino county doesn't have a western county line...its in the ocean, why would they call it the "county line". Maybe the're singing about an adjacent county. Anyway, who cares?

  • @PhnxCaller exactly retard. it SANK west of the Mndocino County line, in thew ocean. the horizon.

  • @MrRedwoodvalley who refers to a county line in the middle of an ocean? Also, mredwoodvalley, I don't even consider you being from Mendocino County...youre too close to Lake County!!! Hahaha!

  • @PhnxCaller oh my god... he says it sank WEST of the mendocino county line, not on it. and what is this about lake county?

  • @PhnxCaller I could give a damn about where either of you shitkickers are from. Sheeesh, I'm convinced you guys are from Doucheville Holler.

  • @PhnxCaller. I heard this song all my twenty one years of life. And I still love it. Willie and LeeAnn are the best two singers. Next to so many that I grew up with. They would put Faith and Tim a run for their money lol. Of course they are talking about the sun. Listen to a girl that had heard this so all her life.

  • @PhnxCaller dipshit.

  • I miss you leggett, mendocino county, ca. Always thinking about you

  • awesome song. mendocino CA is a beautiful place!

  • i made you happy, once apone a time , you know who you are!.

  • Lee Ann Womack is stunningly beautiful!!!!!

  • The pairing of country's elder statesman with a beautiful up-and-coming star may have been a marketing ploy by a bunch of slick suits, but it works brilliantly. The song is characterized by its restraint. Neither Willie nor Lee Ann go overboard with their vocals, and the song as a whole has a wonderful, quietly melancholic atmosphere.

  • why does the rest of the world need to know where any of you fuckers are from? get over it. this is a great tune, lets leave it at that.

  • @MrPenrithblue ur mums a great tune u dick!!!!

  • @Lokimask123 LIKE YOU WOULD KNOW WHAT A WOMAN WAS LIKE HA HA YOU DUMB WANKER

  • this is one of the best songs you young bucks

  • Anyone notice an excessive amount of steam coming out of Willie's mouth at the end of the song.... Oh well I love this song and OMG Lee Ann Womack is so so so HAWT!

  • i really don't care what county you are from--people party all over the united states. this song is sung by two texans--but the real genious is the writer of this song. it's not about smoking dope--it's about relationships and how they start out with a bang but somehow diminsish w/ time.

  • Believers and non-believers, black's and white's, Christian's and Muslim's, Gay's and hetero's, blood's and crip's,

    Republican's and Democrat's, Serb's and Croat's, Hippies and redneck's, MILF lover's and pedophile's, Catholic priest's and whore's all come on Youtube to battle it out on ANY and EVERY thread! LMAO!

  • As much as I love them both, I can't help but notice the horribly black hooves on the horses....

  • Im from Mendocino county. Im not proud of what mendo stands for now. Mendocino is a BEAUTIFUL county! but its full of drugs.

  • @saraheduncan98 Every place is full of Drugs now!mendocino county is a very Beautiful place I Would be Proud to be from There!

  • @saraheduncan98 Every place is full of Drugs now!mendocino county is a very Beautiful place I Would be Proud to be from There!cm

  • @clmacon fuck off, be proud of where you're from

  • @MrPenrithblue You have a Mental Problem AssHole!

  • im from mendo and yeah its a nice place and all but willie is known for smoking weed, lots of it... Mendocino County is where its at so im pretty sure willie is talking about the weed he would smoke from Mendocino County and how it would make them "filling every moral every friday night" :P

  • @whynotsenor I don't know. Maybe they picked Mendocino county because it borders the Pacific Ocean. The Pacific Coast is the furtherest place West in the continental United States. The sun sinking west is a metaphor. I always thought it was symbolic for a good thing (e.g. the day in the metaphor) giving way to something cold and dark (e.g. the night in the metaphor). Why pick Mendocino County instead of any other county? It's fun to say...

  • @whynotsenor filling every moral... that labored, man...

  • @mikeg1060 watch half baked willie explains it himself.... man...

  • ditto katedm1

  • Beautiful. Loved seeing Willie ride.

  • every time I lesson to this song I rember whyI love to hear Willie sing

  • This is a such beautiful song. It sure brings a lot of memories back.

  • Williie Nelson - we need more artists like him. Lee Ann Womack - Bless your heart. A talented beautiful woman.

  • i love this song...it is great

  • This song makes me home sick for my native California....I'm a native northern California boy......raised to hug trees and eat berrries..........If you believe that's what we do, get a life morons.

  • GREAT song! Willie Nelson can do no wrong, and Miss Womack is fine on this too. I read some of the comments below, and just wanted to share that I had the pleasure to see Willie several years ago - he's exceptionally nice to his fans- it was a chance passing, only for a few minutes, but I will never forget it- I've been a fan for many years, and knowing he's a really nice guy only makes me admire him more. Thanks for great memories, Willie.

  • Willie, please grow your hair long again! =)

  • If I could spend the day with one star/singer it would be Willie Nelson...The stories he could tell. I would not even mind smoking a few with the best....

  • @Katedm1 count me in on that meet, he has to be the most amazing

  • oh yea

  • If they are singing about Mendocino California then they are singing about a wonderful, almost magical place. And I am not referring to the dope they grow, the attitude is what I loved, and of course the scenery. Great job Willie and Lee Ann. Danke.

  • @deutschschoen definitely mendo. the dope grown here is great, however:)

  • @safehouse123 Help Iowa!

  • @dawsomd1 IOWA? I hear ya....

  • @deutschschoen best county in the state! that's just my biased opinion :)

  • Good old MENDO, Man i love there weed =]

  • Thanks for putting this song on here. I first took a great liking to it when i heard it while spending the summer miles from anywhere up in the Rockies. I Never hear it on the radio these days. Thanks
