Waylon Jennings
Cuz I was never pretty anyway and never cared anything about that.
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.

Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love.
Waylon Jennings
We did an album one time called White Mansions, about the civil war, but it was written by a guy from England. His looking at it from over there and it not being a part of his history made it so he could be objective.
Waylon Jennings

Waylon Jennings
Listening to his songs she heard nothing but bad news, still she made her mind up to try to get him win or lose.
Waylon Jennings
If we all could sound like we wanted to, we'd all sound like George Jones.
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
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
One night of love don't make up for six nights alone. But I'd rather have one than none Lord, cause I'm flesh and bone.
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
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
Hitting the bottle again, ever than I've drunker been. Or is it drunker than I've ever been?
Waylon Jennings
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.
Waylon Jennings
