Proudly served in the United States Navy "Roll me up and smoke me when I die And if anyone don't like it, just look 'em in the eye I didn't come here, and I ain't leaving So don't sit around and cry Just roll me up and smoke me when I die Now you won't see me no sad and teary eyes When I get my wings and it's my time to fly Call my friends and tell them There's a party, come on by And just roll me up and smoke me when I die When I go out, I've been here long enough So sing and tell more jokes and dance and stuff Just keep the music playing that'll be as good as goodbye Roll me up and smoke me when I die Hey take me out and build a roaring fire And just roll me in the flames for about an hour And then take me out and twist me up And point me towards the sky And roll me up and smoke me when I die" -Willie Nelson We love you.
