Quote

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.

This world that I live in is empty and cold/the loneliness cuts me and tortures my soul.
Waylon Jennings
Image
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.

I may be crazy, but it keeps me from going insane.

There's always one more way to do something-- your way.
Waylon Jennings
Image
If I could only fly, you see, a lot of my problems would be gone. When you think of just how much I'd save on shoes alone.
Waylon Jennings
Image
Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love.

Image
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
Image
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.

You know, in the days when I started, if you had Chet Atkins' name on your record as a producer and it was on RCA, you could work the road. It didn't have to be a big hit record, it just had to have that on it.

I could have killed her when we first met and I've been out of jail by now.

I didn't aim at anything except good music.
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.

Image
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.

Heaven is laying in my sweet baby's arms, hell is when my baby's not here.
Waylon Jennings

I was king of the mountain for a long time, well, I don't want that no more. I like to perform every once in a while for people who want to see me, and cut albums of music that is what I'm really about.
Waylon Jennings
Image
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.

Is your head up your ass so far that you can't pull it out?

If we all could sound like we wanted to, we'd all sound like George Jones.

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.

It was all devastating. I'd never dealt with losing anyone close to me, and I didn't know where to put it in my life. I was very young then. Buddy taught me so much in such a short time.
