Let the Rest of the World Go By

Willie Nelson · One for the Road [1979]

With someone like you a pal good and true

I'd like to leave it all behind and go and find

A place that's known to God alone just a spot we could call our own

We'll find perfect peace where joys never cease

Somewhere beneath the stary skies

We'll build a sweet little nest somewhere out in the west

And let the rest of the world go by

[ guitar - piano ]

With someone like you...

And let the rest of the world go by
