KRIS..You are THE MAN...I saw u in 78 in RI and you kissed me when I leaned over +begged for1! ...thought I died and went to Heavan..am still kickin cans and I'll fry your chicken anytime, also saw you in SLake Tahoe in the 80's somehow you do somethin to me..remember I told you I'd kiss your ass when u where on stage WILL ALWAYS LUV U PIA
The way he got started is He landed a helicopter on Johnny Cash's lawn to get his attention. Johnny Cash was so impressed he invited him in and listened to Kris & the rest is history
@Virgil27ful He got a job sweeping floors at Columbia Studios in Nashville. There he met Johnny Cash, who initially accepted some of Kristofferson's songs but chose not to use them
@crazzzynut Interesting story but not exactly accurate. He rejected the songs from the janitor until Kristofferson landed a helicopter in Johnny's backyard during a "BBQ."
i dont know if you waste your time reading this dunmb shit. but if you do just like to thank you for turnin down west point. and writeing and singing such cool songs. ty
I read that his family disowned him for pursuing songwriting. He finished Army duty, declined a staff position at West Point & did whatever he had to do to find his way into music. Worked as a janitor & helicopter pilot.
Reminds me of my dad. He liked a drink. I miss him so much. Dead 21 years and I still cry. Even more so when I.listen to songs like this R.I.P Brian Robert Horsley (Curly) ,,, thanks Kris. X
He also was a helicopter pilot, and he turned down a teaching position at Westpoint to pursue a music career in Nashville. his first gig was being a janitor at a record studio.
This is such a universal song...it could've been called 'waking up wasted on sunday morning when the rest of the decent world is off to wholesome pursuits while I lie here still hung over, reeking of smoke, sick from too much of everything not good for me.....and seeing a stranger here beside me makes it even worse!!' I'm so glad those days are far behind me and nobody could have nailed the feeling in a song like Kris did!
According to at least two websites, KK served in West Germany but never went to Vietnam.
Regardless, to achieve the rank of Captain and graduate from Ranger School, he most certainly earned several medals. Active duty is not the only way to earn medals.
I've Loved Kris for the past 45 years, & that has never changed. I've always loved "On a Sunday Morning Sidewalk" for just the same amount of time. He's Blessed.
He was an Army Ranger not trooper. and he was a three sport star in college a Rhodes Scholar and hes been in alot of movies! He has lived an amazing life
@razorskiss58 You dick-lick, Army Rangers are Troopers! You must be a Navy, uhm, man. He can't sing a lick, can't act a lick, but he can write one hell of a song.
God knows I've had many mornings like this and, while I've taken to the 12 steps, some days, like today, I just feel like this. Thanks Kris, for speaking my mind.
cant believe 12 people dislike this...a man singing from his soul and you can feel the lyrics. just goes to show you cant please everyone and that people are retards
OUT-STANDING. I have heard many different versions of this song, I like Bobby Bare's and Johnny Cash's versions but this is without a doubt the way the song should be sung.
It's Blues, it's Soul, it's filled with life and life turned upside down, inside out. It's much of Kris' life. How 'bout just try to interject something that isn't obnoxiously disrespectful, or maybe that's just what YouTube is all about. Go find the song he sang about Gandhi, Lincoln, JFK, see if American or country or otherwise has anything to do with the freakin' message. Always gonna' be a William Bonnie, better known as Bill the Kid, and there will always be a Joey Steele, but few Kris K's.
@curleyteeth rlly? This is what you call an ignorant comment. Thumbs down if you think this person is a noob. Kris plays country, this is what you call country my lad.
@thelizardking887 I know it is country but the lyrics are about unhappiness so it is the blues.They are connected aren,t they?.Idon,t know what a noob is by the way but My initial vibes are that it isn,t probably very complimentary and I guess you are an American so it is probably par for the course.
Back in 1972, when I was 17 years old, I first heard Kris Kristofferson sing, and I fell in love with his voice and his lyrics. The only other artist who has touched me in quite the same way, has been kd lang. Kris - I salute you. You are absolutely brilliant, and I am so grateful that you came into my life when you did.
@jbcook1000: You are dead on. Yeeears ago, I was telling people Kris is a poet, and one after my own heart. Musician he is, but he is one of my favorite poets. What he does with language in a song like this is outright hymnal. He will be playing in my vicinity in a few days. I won't make it, but I'll be thinking of him.
@jazzbluesshaman my wife and I saw his show with Merle Haggard last year, it was one of the greatest shows I've been to. We also saw him at the Bridge School Benefit last fall. His voice is not even as strong as it was whenever they made this video, he is getting pretty old. But it's great to be in his musical presence so to speak, and Merle puts on a really incredible show.
Kris wrote the prettiest,most purposeful words of the 20th century ! One of his early influences, William Blake would be proud of him ! I know Kris would not admit it, but he is a poet ! God Bless Kris
I was there 30 years ago, its bloody hard my friend but you will get there, go to the Funeral, keep on drinking the white rum, love your loves, never forget your friends, and lay the dead to rest in peace.
every body says this or that person is the best country singer but 90% of those ppl have no idea that this living ledgend rite here wrote 90% of their songs! all i can say is hail to the chief!, one of the reasons i like ray scott so much is he understands this! look up ray scott my kind of music! he is a new wave outlaw that gets no radio play where im from and it makes me want to say F^@K U NASHVILLE, just though i would share that, plz dont repl or thumbs up cus i dont care!
@floridajeet I hear he's also been President of the USA, and is soon to depose Kofi from the President of the United Nations. Then he's only one step from King of the World!
we are so lucky to still have the pure genious of this american treasure. the things he endured in like from booze to drugs and self exile to get himself cleaned. i truly love this man and all his misic.
I agree with all the others who are celebrating his brilliance as a songwriter. For me, he's got it all -- heart, talent, humanity, creativity, and as much sex appeal as I can stand, even at his old age (and mine). Along with so many other wonderful talents, he's helped make the world a better place.

@Mark18240 said "He's done it so much better in the past" ..... You mean when he had a 30- or 40- or even 50-year-old voice to work with? ;) He doesn't have that now, but he still works pretty darned well with the one he has now. :-)
Great sentimental song. He desperately needed to tune the 4th string, though. Way flat, but he pulled it off even so. Sometimes a slightly flat string adds a bit of realism to the tune, especially after listening to modern recordings that are digitally made perfect before release. It seems he has not gotten the respect he has earned; 14 year old punks sometimes get more glory these days.
@reb3773 "14 year old punks sometimes get more glory these days" this is true ... but don't let it get to you. Fame and glory aren't much of a reward if you don't have the heart soul to back it up : )
Thank You Kris, i bouhgt you big song book 34 yrs ago and learned to play that song and many others , good memories and WHY ME LORD is my favorite, sing it at church some times...........there is something bout a Sunday that makes a body feel alone - that is the soul saying, ask JESUS to come in my heart and believe.....JESUS will fill you up
This song is posted on Facebook page called "Golden Tunes - Sound of Oldies", so if you have fb account and some time, check it, i guess you will like it :) Page is for everyone who like like warm cozy sound of evergreen music.
AND FOR THE LAST TIME PEOPLE, DAVID ALLAN COE WROTE THIS SONG! STOP SAYING JOHNNY CASH WROTE IT, OR KRIS KRISTOFFERSON WROTE IT. EVERYONE THINKS KRIS WROTE IT, BUT DAVID ALLAN COE WROTE IT FOR JOHNNY CASH IN THE 1950S ALONG WITH MANY OTHER SONGS. KRIS AND DAVID WERE FRIENDS AT THE TIME, BUT PLEASE GIVE CREDIT TO THE MAN WHO WROTE IT
@MrOutlawCountry if it is as you say and Coe wrote the song why does Cash himself credit Kris with writing it and by the way I have the original vinyl copy of the album,and it does not mention Coe as a writer or co writer of this song and you can bet if Coe wrote the song he would be suing the shit out of Kristofferson for stealing his tune
I've always liked Johnny Cash's version, but this bare-bones take by the original is amazing. All the emotion he packs into simple lyrics and gentle guitar strumming are more forceful than any of today's overproduced lightweights!
This tune is an accurate autobiographical scene from his life.

I love this man, such a brilliant musician, his voice is so good, I totally agree, he's one of the greatest song writers to walk this earth.

On the Sunday morning sidewalk,
wishing, Lord, that I was stoned.
'Cos there's something in a Sunday,
makes a body feel alone.

Great song, one of my favorites. I think most of us have been on that Sunday morning sidewalk a time or two.

And it took me back to somethin',
That I'd lost somehow, somewhere along the way.
Oh yeah..

Great sentimental song. He desperately needed to tune the 4th string, though. Way flat, but he pulled it off even so. Sometimes a slightly flat string adds a bit of realism to the tune, especially after listening to modern recordings that are digitally made perfect before release. It seems he has not gotten the respect he has earned; 14 year old punks sometimes get more glory these days.

@reb3773 "14 year old punks sometimes get more glory these days" this is true ... but don't let it get to you. Fame and glory aren't much of a reward if you don't have the heart soul to back it up : )

Nope, Kris wrote it. Coe wrote some great stuff. But Kris wrote Sunday Morning Coming Down. (Look at his first album.)

AND FOR THE LAST TIME PEOPLE, DAVID ALLAN COE WROTE THIS SONG! STOP SAYING JOHNNY CASH WROTE IT, OR KRIS KRISTOFFERSON WROTE IT. EVERYONE THINKS KRIS WROTE IT, BUT DAVID ALLAN COE WROTE IT FOR JOHNNY CASH IN THE 1950S ALONG WITH MANY OTHER SONGS. KRIS AND DAVID WERE FRIENDS AT THE TIME, BUT PLEASE GIVE CREDIT TO THE MAN WHO WROTE IT

@MrOutlawCountry if it is as you say and Coe wrote the song why does Cash himself credit Kris with writing it and by the way I have the original vinyl copy of the album,and it does not mention Coe as a writer or co writer of this song and you can bet if Coe wrote the song he would be suing the shit out of Kristofferson for stealing his tune

I've always liked Johnny Cash's version, but this bare-bones take by the original is amazing. All the emotion he packs into simple lyrics and gentle guitar strumming are more forceful than any of today's overproduced lightweights!

@RWOODWARD64 I hate to break it to you, but David Allan Coe wrote this song for Johnny Cash in the 1950s.

I love this version, same as the Johnny Cash original, but this version is very very good
