@tomasso achei sua sugestão bastante plausível. Poderia colocá-la como resposta?
Obrigada!

Ok, Maria Eu imaginei algo do gênero. Mesmo com esse contexto, mantenho minha sugestão. Obrigado.

Realmente, Mario, o link não está funcionando. Desculpe, mas só vi agora sua mensagem.

A expressão em questão aparece como título de uma avaliação do livro It's a Long Story, a qual transcrevo abaixo.

"Still pickin and kickin"

There are so many rumors about this man you never know what is true and what is fabrication.
Take a listen hear the facts, and enjoy the matter of fact story telling. So sit back use your token and enjoy a warm rebelling of Willie Nelsons life
By s master story teller. And when you have finished the book you'll be glad you spent a little getting to know how this American Icon came to be.

PHRASE
If you say that someone or something is alive and kicking, you are emphasizing not only that they continue to survive, but also that they are very active.

Quote; he definitive autobiography of Willie Nelson.

This is the unvarnished, complete story of Willie Nelson's life, told in his distinct voice and leaving no moment or experience unturned, from Texas and Nashville to Hawaii and his legendary bus.

Having recently turned 80, Nelson is ready to shine a light on all aspects of his life, including his drive to write music, the women in his life, his collaborations, and his biggest lows and highs - from his bankruptcy to the founding of Farm Aid.
