Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Some bright morning
When this life is over
I’ll fly away
To that home on God’s celestial shore
I’ll fly away

[Chorus]
I’ll fly away
Oh glory
I’ll fly away
When I die
Hallelujah by and by
I’ll fly away

[Verse 2]
When the shadows of this life have gone
I’ll fly away
Like a bird from prison bars have flown
I’ll fly away

[Chorus]
I’ll fly away
Oh glory
I’ll fly away
When I die
Hallelujah by and by
I’ll fly away

[Bridge]
Take it away

[Verse 3]
Oh how glad and happy when we meet
I’ll fly away
No more cold iron shackles on my feet
I’ll fly away

[Chorus]
I’ll fly away
Oh glory
I’ll fly away
When I die
Hallelujah by and by
I’ll fly away

[Verse 4]
Just a few more weary days and then
I’ll I’ll fly away
To a land where joy will never end
I’ll fly away
One more time

[Chorus]
I’ll fly away
Oh glory
I’ll fly away
When I die
Hallelujah by and by
I’ll fly away

“The soul of a songwriter is shaped by the city that believes in him.” For Kris Kristofferson, Nashville was never just a backdrop — it was the forge that taught him humility, grit, and respect for every word he put to paper. Even as his fame carried him far beyond Music Row, he never stopped honoring that city with songs that spoke of truth and resilience. One of the finest examples is “Sunday Mornin’ Comin’ Down,” a track that blends raw honesty with timeless storytelling, echoing the lessons Nashville instilled in him. It’s more than a song; it’s a reflection of a man shaped by a place that demanded his very best.

They say cowboys were born with restless hearts, but few carried it as far as George Strait. One night, somewhere between the glow of a Texas highway and the silence of an empty phone line, he realized that love and rodeo don’t always ride in the same saddle. “I Can Still Make Cheyenne” isn’t just a song—it feels like a confession. A man who chose the roar of the arena over the warmth of a home, and in doing so, lost something he could never quite rope back in. But what if that choice still lingers with him, long after the crowds stopped cheering? What if every lonely hotel room and stretch of highway is haunted by the voice on the other end of a call he once hung up on? 👉 Behind the legend of the King of Country lies a man who knows what it means to win the world… and lose what matters most.

He was the outlaw legend, a man who sang of rebellion and raw truth, but Waylon Jennings’ final days weren’t a storm. As his health declined, the spotlight faded, and what was left was a quiet room filled with the enduring love of his wife, Jessi Colter, and his children. A close friend shared that in the end, he wasn’t just surrounded by family; he “was surrounded by peace”—a beautiful, serene final chapter for a man who lived one of country music’s most legendary lives.

He sang with grit. He lived with fire. And he left with dignity. In the quiet glow before sunset, Toby Keith stood once more on Oklahoma soil — the red earth that had shaped his soul from boyhood to legend. There were no spotlights, no cheering crowds, only the whisper of wind and the calm of home. Removing his hat, he looked to the fading horizon, as if sealing the final page of a life lived boldly — as a son, a father, and a man who always sang with unshakable truth. Before walking away, he murmured, “If I leave this world with a song in my heart and boots on my feet… I’ve done alright.” And in the stillness, one line seemed to ride the breeze forever: “Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue.”
