крис -ты знак эпохи!

[darbusmaximus]

i was actually named after this song. im almost 14 now and its weird to hear it. its still a very soothing song though. : )

[msyvre1]

Timeless!



[bobbypacella72]

its kris retard and def not his best song how bout somebody nobody knows or sunday morning coming down or black and blue or the silver tongue devil or to beat the devil need i go on

[Ncompasscom2]

He’s a poet, a prophet, a pilgrim and a preacher. Maybe not the best singer but he always performs with such emotion. I don’t think there is one Kristofferson song I don’t absolutely love. Thanks for posting ;o)

[TheJUNGLESURFER]

@Ncompasscom2 i reckon he is an awesome singer he does all his songs better than all the covers

[PWK007]

song reminds me of my father, thanks for posting, I havent heard it in years, have a couple of his "records" but no way to play them

[MrLialaw]

thx for posting i remember this from london in 73 had a few albumson vinyl and played them day an night 

[jakeelkhart]

Thank you Kris for all of your great music, when i was a kid, I bought one of your song books, the big one and I used to sit and play your songs for hours, and i learned this song, by reading the music and playing it and many others, God bless you and thank you for your testimony on WHY ME LORD, love it - mark

[zaaritha]

Great storyteller!

[carsolify]

i have the first tapeof this and many others of kris

[shda33]

So did Kris write this song? I have always loved this song & didn't know who wrote it.

[mtchair4me]

@shda33 Yes Kris wrote this song. It was one of his earliest pieces.

[denniss265]

I have the original 33. I only play it after I have had about 5 too many.

[blackdogleg]

why not?

[nrhbmw]

I have a dog named Darby. He's a troublemaker

[windjack1]

[joann1940]

Is this on an album anywhere?

[mtchair4me]

[skyout19]

it's on Live From Austin TX

[jofabuls]

yes ME AND BOBBY MCGEE

[mtchair4me]

I am really surprised that this song and another Kris Kris song "Jody and the kid" do not have more of a following. Kris displays the true poet in these pieces.Beautiful but under appreciated.

[canadiangirl1041]

thanks so much for posting this!!!!! I haven't heard this song since I was little and I've been trying to find it ever since the Kristofferson tape we had broke.

[filaguy13]

I just saw kris live tonight. It was so great! I consider myself blessed to have been able to see such a great singer/songwriter live!

[cuccv]

kris kristofferson,was there anyone any better?

[mayanas1]

I am SO thankful for my parents having all their old records lying around when I was 13 and very curious. What discoveries I made and this was one of the very first! Brings back memories.

[mtchair4me]

The author paints the scene, story line, emotions and emotional content with words, tieing it all together with wonderful charismatic music. I believe this is one of his most powerful compositions. Right up there with the piece about the hippies, the piece about the strung out wino or that wonderful prayer song.

[garbred]

This is a very personal song for me. Thanks for posting it.

[DJGideon]

You need to hear Roger Miller's version.

Same lyrics but fantastic delivery.

Kris wrote it, Roger nailed it!

[zackepple]

They're all more heartfelt from Kristofferson himself.

[no1eggy]

DO YOU HAVE THIS ON CD BY MILLER !!!

[star1969xxx]

[lululangford]
