That's good! The song says a lot!!

And he is standing in the wind there like a rock. And that's what he always does in fact! He is one of the, if not the last real country poet and performer left and his legacy and the line he walks are solid as stone!

- Hi Johi! Although this show took place during the month of August, it was absolutely freezing, windy, and raining the entire time Kris was on stage. He actually thanked US for sticking it out. A lot of other performers would have cut their set short, but not him. A true class act! Oh, and thanks so much for all the great vids you've been sending me! I've only just nowbeen able to sign in after several months of not being able to (when they partnered up with google).

I swear he was reading my mail when I was in my forties! His songs are still among my very favorites..I use to refer to him as "my favorite philosopher". Still, often, I felt a twinge, and wished that he wasn't singing about me.

just discovered this song,a few chords an then the lyrics, starting in a funny way and then'everybody's got to have somebody to look down on, one they can feel better than at anytime they please' that's great, makes you start thinking,one liners that passed the test of time,like ' freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose'Kris Kristofferson : larger than life
