He Was Left Alone
Willie Nelson was born into a complicated life. Unfortunately, when he was just an infant, his mother left the family. Soon after, his mechanic dad got remarried and moved away with his new wife, abandoning his son and daughter. It can be devastating for children to grow up feeling like both their mother and father don’t want them.

Children need to grow up, surrounded by love, feeling safe, and secure. For Willie, it was the complete opposite; he was left alone. Willie and his sister Bobbie were raised by their grandparents from Arkansas. It all worked out in the end, though. It was his grandparents who introduced young Willie to music and helped him pursue his passion and God-given talent.
