This is Willie.
Mommy gets you set up over there,
buddy.
And he is not named after Willie Nelson,
and he is named after Willie Braun
from Reckless Kelly.
Say hi. Hi.
We call him Bug
because he's cute as one.
What's your shirt say?

Whose shirt is that?

So I'll tell this story real quick.
you me tell a story?
Is that okay?
You got time? Okay. Never know.
Muzzy Braun told me today,
he said you never, the Braun dad,
he said you never involve children
or animals in entertainment.
So you got four kids dude
that are in bands.
Obviously he was laying
on the sarcasm pretty thick.
But God, when Ragweed split,

what'd you say?
When Ragweed split,
A
D
I had this moment of like
two days
where I didn't know what I was gonna do.
It was like, yeah, I've
been doing this same thing
for 16 years,
I've known these guys forever,
I don't know what to do.
It's just scary,
it's like getting the rug pulled out
G
from under you, you know?
D
And then I talked to Jeremy,
our bass player,
my brother -in -law, my best friend,
one of my best friends
since I was about six,
and I said, what are we gonna do?
And he goes, well, we're gonna get a rock band together,
that's what we're gonna do.
So that was over,
you know.
Panic for two hours, I can handle that.
But I got to a point
where I hadn't written a song in like a year,
or even collaborated with anybody.
And I always call two people
when the chips are down.
Two people that I admire
more than anybody in music,
and one is Robert Earl Keene.
And the other is the fabulous train wreck himself,
Mr. Todd Snyder.
And those are my kind of people.
My wife,
Shannon, and I have always said
that we want our careers to be like Robert's,
you know?
I mean, there's ups and there's downs,
but we always want to be
respected
and be stable, you know?
And I think we've kept it going.
and I called Robert
and I said uh man you know I'm
in a spot
I haven't uh
I haven't written a song in a
while
and I'm kind of scared
for the first time in a while
E
D
I'm scared I don't know what to do
I think it's been I get is right it's like well
I know that thank you thanks for the help
Bob love you buddy well
then I called Todd
and I said the same thing.
And I said, man, I'm in a spot.
Can't write. It's been a while.
And he goes, man, I tell you what,
why don't you get a big bag
of weed
and come out to East Nashville
and let's write some music.
A
D
And I well, I've already tried that.
So then I called home
and I talked to Dierks, my oldest boy.
And he goes, and in his words,
and they're, you know, they're sponges,
you know, he goes, why are you so blue, Daddy?
And I'll never forget that.
And I said, well,
because I haven't written a song in
and it's kind of getting to me, know, this is what I do for a living,
and if we want to go to Disneyland,
the daddy needs to
write some songs.
Because I want to go to Disneyland.
And he goes, well,
I think it's really unfair
that you wrote a song for me
and you haven't
written a song for my brother yet.
So right there on the corner of Bill Clinton Avenue in Little Rock,
Arkansas, this song was born
because of that phone call.
