Album Notes

All proceeds for this song will be given to the foodbank where they are able to buy $3 worth of food for every dollar donated - now that is holiday magic!

This holiday tune is a lesser known hit written by Willie Nelson. He wrote the song based on a disabled man selling pencils and ribbons in Hillsboro, Texas sitting outside the Kresses department store when Willie was a young man in 1953.
Roy Orbison had a hit with it in 1979, a hit that helped Willie’s career a great deal.

Both Willie and Roy are huge inspirations of Reid’s so it only made sense to do this song, especially as it speaks to the charity we must all exercise if we are to truly be in the spirit of the season.

If you liked ‘Let It Be Me’...you will love ‘Pretty Paper’.
