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.

More quotes by Waylon Jennings
If we all could sound like we wanted to, we'd all sound like George Jones.
Waylon Jennings
The Hank Williams Syndrome: Come to Nashville, write some good songs, cut some hit records, make money, take all the drugs you can and drink all you can, become a wild man and all of a sudden die.
Waylon Jennings
The rock and roll spirit. I learned a lot of that because I worked with Buddy Holly. I played bass with him, and he taught me a lot about that.
Waylon Jennings
But Buddy was an upper. He was happy. He loved music, and he was really happy. I don't know... I don't believe in reincarnation at all, but if all that stuff is true, then he might have been on his last time around.
Waylon Jennings
I ain't got no reverse. I've learned, a little later in life, it works out pretty good to have one every once in a while.
Waylon Jennings
Take your tongue out of my mouth, I'm kissing you good-bye.
Waylon Jennings
I might be an endangered species.
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
I'm just a man, no more or no less. Bad as the worst, good as the best.
Waylon Jennings
Finally, my manager negotiated a deal where I got to produce my own records.
Waylon Jennings
Nobody knows I'm Elvis, nobody knows this is me. After all of my tries, I've got the perfect disguise.
Waylon Jennings
To me a guitar is kind of like a woman. You don't know why you like 'em but you do.
Waylon Jennings
When I look at you girl, I see a true work of art. So many beautiful things coming in one little heart.
Waylon Jennings
But ya know what, I am a part of something that happened. I'm a part of the music that happened. My voice is one more instrument, is what it is. So that's the way I feel about people who “play on sessions.
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
Heaven is laying in my sweet baby's arms, hell is when my baby's not here.
Waylon Jennings
When you're down in Texas, Bob Wills is still the king.
Waylon Jennings
Each tomorrow will depend on the love you give today.
Waylon Jennings
Is your head up your ass so far that you can't pull it out?
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.
