Composition

Jack Johnson wrote the song as a tribute to the country singer Willie Nelson.[2] Johnson said that "a great song is just three chords and the truth." He also said that it was a "real honor" to just spend a night with Nelson.[3] Johnson refers to the night which he played poker with Nelson, and he lost consciousness, lost pride, and all hope when he got stoned with Nelson.[2] During that night the two men also went out and smoked pot together.[4] Johnson originally composed the song before Farm Aid 2015 in Saratoga Springs when he performed the song off of a sheet of paper he wrote on. Then the title of the song was "Willie Got Me Stoned and Stole All of my Money."[5]

Recording

The song was recorded in the summer of 2017 at the 11th show of his All the Light Above it Too World Tour in Fiddler's Green Amphitheatre.[4]

Live performance

Johnson performed the song during his All the Light Above It Too World Tour,[6][7] and during Farm Aid 2015.[8] He has performed the song 29 times in total.[9][10]
