Nelson's Antiwar Song Not To Be Single - 2004-01-12
It was reported late last week that Willie Nelson wrote an anti-war song for democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich, and that it would in time become a single. But, according to the Biloxi, Ms Sun Herald, Nelson claims he wrote the song on Christmas day. With lines such as "How
