More quotes by Waylon Jennings
I'm just a man, no more or no less. Bad as the worst, good as the best.
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
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
The men who could not fight, in a war that didn't seem right. You let them come home, America.

Waylon Jennings
I sat at a bar having a beer trying to hold down the stool.
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
The villains have turned into heroes. The heroes have turned into heals.
Waylon Jennings
Each tomorrow will depend on the love you give today.
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
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.
Waylon Jennings
Now, I don't know how they judge all that, but if anybody in the world deserves to be in the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame, Ritchie Valens does.
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
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.
Waylon Jennings
I'm old and crazy, but I still give a damn. And I still think the boys got screwed over in Vietnam.
Waylon Jennings
