Willie Nelson, 84, was the subject of a CBS Sunday Morning sit-down with host Bob Schieffer yesterday (July 16—an earlier version of the story was originally published on April 2, 2017).
In addition to talking about the long-running joke surrounding reported claims of his death (“I’ve been killed several times throughout the years”), Willie dished about his health (“I haven’t really got anything to bitch about”), his “wild and crazy” days in Nashville, the “truth” in songwriting, paying off his debt to the IRS (“It’s kind of funny when you think about it”), his affinity for marijuana (“It keeps me from going off and doing crazy things”), continuing to tour (“What, do you want me to quit?”) and more.
Watch the interview below.
