| Willie Nelson – Pancho And Lefty Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| This song is about two brothers that were close but if it makes sense at all were also rivals one being his Mother's favorite both sent out on the road to live a cold, hard life. In this person's perception that I knew he came from a family of alcoholics and knew in order to be free he and his brother had to leave their parent's home and go out to their own dreams and independence in the world without training and without help. In the end the one brother died in the song. I say this because I knew of two brothers who claimed this to be "their song" because just as it states above this song was just like their life as they knew it. The song may hold other meanings for someone else. The person I knew actually thought he should play this song at his wedding it meant so much to him (in some way I think this person felt that marriage was his death sentence- sad but true). He felt marriage was his death sentence because he had watched his parent's suffer through their own alcoholism marriage like attending a funeral. Songs can hold very valuable meanings to us for different reasons. Often the general idea is the same but the details, ideologies and personal meanings comes from the eye of the reader. May God Bless you Bryon, in your honor and in your precious memory. | |
