Famous country music singer/songwriter Ed Bruce passed away last night at the age of 81 due to natural causes in Clarksville, Tennessee. Bruce was a highly touted songwriter in the 1970s and 1980’s, who is most well known for writing Waylon Jennings’ hit song, “Mammas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow up to be Cowboys.” Bruce originally sang the song, and it peaked at number 15 on the Hot Country Singles chart in 1976. Perhaps the song is most well known for Waylon Jennings’ and Willie Nelson’s version, which hit number one in 1978. Nelson and Jennings won a Grammy for “Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal” in 1979 with the song. It was also voted by the Western Writers of America as one of the top 100 western songs of all time.
