By Kris Kristofferson. By Kris Kristofferson. Arranged by Christopher Alexander. Comedy,Country,Jazz,Pop. 16 pages. Christopher Alexander #982266. Published by Christopher Alexander (A0.1398989).Originally written by the prolific singer-songwriter Kris Kristofferson, this tune has been covered by many artists since its 1970 release. Famed country music and comedian Ray Stevens brought his stylings to a new interpreation of the song, complete with contrasting musical styles and different meanings to each of the lyrics within the song. Your chorus will have the time of their lives performing this song at your next pops concert. It is highly recommended to watch the Ray Stevens music video of this song (available on YouTube) to get a firm grasp of how to perform the many comedic moments without losing momentum of the song. Some solos parts have been revised to become more suitable for today’s audiences, but nonetheless will still be entertaining.
