Molly Song of the Week - Miss Molly by Willie Nelson

Before the concept of "Molly Songs" fully formed, just after Molly was born, I began searching for some songs to commemorate the birth of my wee one. As any nerd would do, I went searching for MOLLY through my music collection.  I came up empty pretty quick. Top 'Molly" songs inappropriate for an infant Incubus - 'Anna Molly' Vaselines or Nirvana - 'Molly's Lips' Sponge - 'Molly ' God Street Wine or Disco Bitch & The Funk Machine - 'Molly' Creedence Clearwater Revival / Little Richard / Jerry Lee Lewis - 'Good Golly Miss Molly' Once I expanded to iTunes, I did find gold with a very unlikely source.  I found a Willie Nelson album, You Don't Know Me: The Songs of Cindy Walker , complete of songs from a mid 20th century writer. Amongst the fifty and sixty year old songs was the most beautiful song for a most beautiful little girl. 'Miss Molly' arranged by Willie Nelson, written by Cindy Walker
