More quotes by Waylon Jennings
I can't walk, so I can't go home. No need to talk, cause I'm all alone. If I stay here they're gonna lock me in, hitting the bottle again.
Waylon Jennings
I may be crazy, but it keeps me from going insane.
Waylon Jennings
I mean, I think we're put here on earth to make your own destiny, to begin with. I don't think there's anything you can do this way or that way to change anything.
Waylon Jennings
Besides that, I felt guilty. I thought for some reason... I was alive, and Buddy and those boys were dead, and I didn't know how, but somehow I'd caused it.
Waylon Jennings
Lately I've heard rumors that the eagle may be lame. Just because I've been idle, don't mean that I'm tame.

Waylon Jennings
You've got to care about the music...You'd better not be doing it for the publicity, the fame or the money. And you'd sure better not be doing it because it's a way to make a living, 'cause that ain't always going to be easy. You got to believe it, believe in the music. You got to mean it.
Waylon Jennings
I didn't aim at anything except good music.
Waylon Jennings
You know, I feel sorry for the young artists.
Waylon Jennings
His songs were soon curled on the lips of the world, they had earned him the highest acclaim. And yet his greatest desire was the simple warmth of love's fire, cause it's cold on the dark side of fame.
Waylon Jennings
I say, Lord, do right be me, I'm tired of being lonesome, on'ry, and mean.
Waylon Jennings
When you're down in Texas, Bob Wills is still the king.
Waylon Jennings
Heaven is laying in my sweet baby's arms, hell is when my baby's not here.
Waylon Jennings
Is your head up your ass so far that you can't pull it out?
Waylon Jennings
