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

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
I'm just a man, no more or no less. Bad as the worst, good as the best.
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
I never have any problem getting enthusiastic with a good song and a good band.
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
What bothers me most is that I don't bother you.
Waylon Jennings
So I'm not very popular here with those inside the system, as you might guess. I never wanted to be.
Waylon Jennings
When you're down in Texas, Bob Wills is still the king.
