More quotes by 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

Country music isn't a guitar, it isn't a banjo, it isn't a melody, it isn't a lyric. It's a feeling.
Waylon Jennings
The only problem was I needed to use my own group, and things didn't happen until I did. It wasn't a real country sound, what I did. I've listened to it, and I think it was more a west coast rock thing, you know? But it fit. It was country, but it was my own interpretation of country.
Waylon Jennings
So I'm not very popular here with those inside the system, as you might guess. I never wanted to be.
Waylon Jennings
Heroes put to the test, keeping a promise, doing their best.
Waylon Jennings
This world that I live in is empty and cold/the loneliness cuts me and tortures my soul.
Waylon Jennings
I'm just a man, no more or no less. Bad as the worst, good as the best.
Waylon Jennings
I love Johnny Cash, and I respect Johnny Cash. He's the biggest. He's like an Elvis in this business, but no, he's never been the rebel.
Waylon Jennings
Men commit murder and all sorts of mayhem, in a few years they're back on the streets. Highway robbery and white collar crime, and they laugh at the system they beat.
Waylon Jennings
Got my Allman Brothers cassettes stacked up on the dash, got some Jack back in the trunk and a tank full of gas.
Waylon Jennings
He gave us all a mind to think with and to know what's right or wrong, he is that inner spirit that keeps us strong.
