This may be old news to all of you, but I just recently found out he's got Parkinson's disease. Saw him on Larry King and didn't recognize him at all.  Really sad.

"I got it one peice at a time" I think is the name. You're right it is a good song and funny, too.

well I woke up Sunday morning
with no way to hold my head that didn't hurt

and the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad
so I had one more for dessert



I don't think he wrote it, but I always liked his "Sunday Morning Coming Down"

And one of the greatest lines in a country song:

But I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.

hehehe Ripsnort reminded me of a old joke.

When ex-President Clinton stepped off of Air Force One a couple years ago in Washington with a pig under each arm after returning from a trip to Arkansas, the Secret Service officer at the bottom of the ramp inquired about the pigs. Clinton replied, ''they're genuine Arkansas Razorbacks. I got them for Hilary and Chelsea.''
The Secret Service officer replied, ''good trade, sir.''

 I think "Sunday Morning Coming Down" was written by Kris Kristofferson.

I remember reading  about that line as  being quite a controversial discussion in the more moral/censorship aspect of Radio and the FCC back when that song was popular..but it was still played...imagine if those censors fast forwarded to a Rap song on the radio today! :eek: :eek:
