The thousands of people who turned up to Austin's Auditorium Shores for the Beto O'Rourke rally on Saturday night (Sept. 29) were expecting to hear Willie Nelson sing through some of his greatest hits -- but the brand new song written for that specific occasion was certainly an encouraging surprise.
The outlaw country icon wrapped his brief headlining set with a pointed anthem, "Vote 'Em Out," that had attendees belting out the chorus on the walk back over the river long after he left the stage. O'Rourke is the Democratic candidate hoping to oust Ted Cruz from his senate seat, and Nelson made his loyalties plain with a cheeky tune perfect for a grand finale sing-along.
