[@lelamadjiah8246]

RIP, sir. You'll be missed. Thank you for all the great songs.

For 53years our family have listen to his songs. Thankyou Kris Kristofferson. Not a dry eye here.

Awesome life! Academia, novelist, Army Ranger, army helicopter pilot, military war veteran, artist, song writer, actor, numerous Hall of Famer recognitions, rugby footballer, boxer, musician, gutsy singer! A great hunk of a man ❤️

❤ I’d rather hear this old frog croak out his songs with soul, than to hear from some perfectionist play empty rock n roll! And I’d rather hear forgotten words from his aching, breaking heart, than to hear some latest tune that somehow made the charts. 🎶 Yes, Kristofferson’s my hero, through his crazy ups and downs. He has set the hallmark, has the right to wear the crown. Yes, Kristofferson’s my hero, through years and many miles. Whenever I hear his music, it always brings a smile. 🎶 Then in the twilight on the stage, more faded than his jeans, words fell like gilded treasures, more valued than they seem. But I’d rather this old frog croak out out his songs with soul, than to hear from some perfectionist play empty rock n roll … …

He promised Leonard Cohen he would get the first lines of Bird on a Wire on his tombstone. I guess he's living up to that promise. RIP Kris

One of country's greatest songwriters ever. Rest in peace Kris.

[@BertMerlin57]

The last big song writer!

[@ricksonora6656]

Most celebrity eulogies are pretty boring. This was really nice. Humanity plus accomplishment.

Could have at least quoted one of his own songs in the thumbnail.

[@jimig6442]

They are the the words he wanted on his tombstone, hence the quote..

[@theskycavedin]

Kris asked for those words to be on his tombstone. He promised Leonard Cohen he would.
