The only two things in life that make it worth livin' / Is guitars that tune good and firm feelin' women
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
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
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
Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love.
Waylon Jennings
Ladies love outlaws, like babies love stray dogs. Ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold, outlaws touch ladies somewhere deep down in their soul.
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
What bothers me most is that I don't bother you.
Waylon Jennings
They got me for possession of something that was long, long gone.
Waylon Jennings
Now, I was on drugs, and that didn't help a whole lot. He hated that. That was part of where Chet and I had problems, so I take complete blame for that.
Waylon Jennings
You know, I feel sorry for the young artists.
Waylon Jennings
Cuz I was never pretty anyway and never cared anything about that.
Waylon Jennings
