I actually have the Kermit version on my phone & listen to it occasionally. My younger son taught himself to play the melody on guitar & sang it on a talent show when he was a Cub Scout, so it's kind of a sentimental tune for me.

with Kermit singing this song. Sometimes I put it on a loop and let it play for hours while the message bounces around in my thoughts. But, what's not to like about Willie singing anything!!

He keeps going and going and going and …

He's booked solid with show dates up to after Thanksgiving.
Including, as always, Farm Aid September 21st.
