This song was written by Willie Nelson when he was a struggling songwriter/singer. He offered it to Faron for $500.00 but Faron said he wouldn't buy it but he would record it. Faron said that when Willie got his first royalty check "he kissed me right in the mouth" The check was for $20,000.00. Faron Young was an honorable man.

I’m a child of the ‘90s but I’ll listen to his voice over a lot of today’s country music any day. Brings back good memories of my grandfather who really enjoyed the early days of country music. He was featured in a 12 VHS set of 1950s Grand Ole Opry episodes that my grandfather had when I was a child. I gravitated toward his music. 20ish years later, I definitely understand why.

A SELF INDUCED CLAIM BY THAT GOT YOUR 19 TH INFANTRY IN TO SERIOUS TROUBLE . YOU GUYS WERE THE SCOURGE OF THE 287 TH MILITARY POLICE CO. OF WHICH I WAS A MEMBER. I REMEMBER THAT I TOOK YOUR BUDDIES IN TO PROTECTIVE CUSTODY (ARMY SLANG FOR ARREST) ON MANY OCCASIONS , BASICALLY EVERY TIME FOR SIX MONTHS THAT I WENT ON DOWN TOWN PATROL IN BERLIN CHECKING THE G.I. BARS AND SOME NOT SO G.I. YOU GUYS WERE THE MOST BELLIGERENT SON OF BITCHES I EVER DEALT WITH IN MY FIVE YEARS WITH THE MILITARY POLICE CORPS. BRAGADOCIO BASTARDS THAT KEPT THE PROVOST MARSHALS DETAINMENT CENTER FULL FOR MONTHS. YOU FINALLY REALIZED THAT GOD DID NOT SEND YOU TO BERLIN BUT A MERE MORTAL THAT MADE A MISTAKE IN DOING SO.YOU WERE FINALLY SHIPPED BACK VIA AUDUBON TO WEST GERMANY WHERE YOU WERE STRIPPED OF YOUR SELF PROCLAIMED HERO STATUS. NO ONE WAS DISSAPOINTED TO SEE YOU GO. NO ONE REGRETTED YOUR LEAVING. WE WERE JUST HAPPY TO SEE YOUR ASSES OUT OF BERLIN. AND WHAT IS IRONIC THAT THE WAY YOU STARTED YOUR COMMENTS YOU STILL BELIEVE THAT YOU WERE SENT TO LIBERATE THE CITY OF BERLIN AND ALL ITS INHABITANTS. BULLSHIT IT HAS BEEN 58 YEARS AGO AND THEIR IS NO RECORD OF ANY SUCH THING. IT IS , AND WAS , A FIGMENT OF YOUR YOUNG IMAGINATION, THEN AND APPARENTLY NOW , AS YOU SEEM TO HOLD ON TO THE IDEA THAT YOU WERE A GODSEND, WHEN IN FACT YOU WERE A GOD DAMN MENACE. I GENTLY SAY fuck the 19 infantry you fucks were the worse night mare in the history of the wall. SO, NOW AFTER OVER HALF A CENTURY I GET TO ADMONISH YOU DICK HEADS FOR WHAT YOU WERE. A BUNCH YELLOW LIVERED FUCKS THAT ONLY KNEW TWO THINGS. SNIFF OUT THE GERMAN WHORES, AND DRINK ALL THE BEER IN BERLIN. WHICH PUT YOUR HERO BUDDIES IN SHAME ALONG WITH YOUR SELF. YOU GUYS WERE THE WORSE I EVER SEEN. DID YOU TAKE HOME ONE OF THOSE GERMAN STRASSE MADCHENS ? WELL ASSHOLE SLEEP ON THIS NOTE TONIGHT. AUF WEIDER SEN UND LIK MERE SOM ARSE.

i just heard the story about how this song was written. Willie Nelson was a struggling songwriter, and he was in the employ of a publishing company and was working with Hank Cochran writing songs together, but they weren't coming up with much. Hank had to leave for something one day, and told Willie while I'm gone, why don't you just write a song and play it for me when i get back. So Willie was sitting there in the office, saying to himself I have to write a song, what am I going to write about? And he looked around, saw the wall, and just said, "hello wall", and realized that could be a song. That's the brilliance of Willie Nelson. Later, as has been mentioned, Faron Young refused to buy the song from Willie, instead he loaned him $500 in exchange to sing it. Of course, Faron made a lot of money just singing it, so when Willie later told Faron he wanted to pay him back the $500, Faron said don't worry about it, but I tell you what, I know you have a cow, how about you give me a calf from that cow one day. So from then on Faron and Willie whenever they saw each other would joke about how Faron's calf was doing, and how it was growing. Some time later, Willie bought a prize bull, and had it delivered to Faron, dropping it off in his driveway with a note that said "your calf is all grown up, Willie." Faron made a good living in retirement studding that bull out, apparently. And that's the story of Hello Walls.

I was 8 years old when this song came out. I loved it then and I love it now. My grama bought the 45 and everytime I went to her house I played it over and over and over - so much that she said, "Honey, why don't you just take it home?" :-) - I still have it .....

I would start listening to classic country music while living overseas away from my wife for years in Kuwait. This song almost made me mad but in a way helped me cope. Then I got lots of cats off the streets and shipped them back home as a cry of help. No lie, lol. They are all still alive in 2023, since 2015.
