A great song, the ONLY song written by Kenny Rogers after having a conversation with Waylon's wife...Kenny wrote the song about Waylon. And was a pretty big hit for himself.
I really love this song not a big hit for Waylon but a big hit with me "effortless" that's the best way to discribe most of Waylons stuido work I can't think of one person who could even come close to Hoss' creativity in all diffrent forms that's why he's the best
Waylon....where would we be without you.You live on in our hearts and minds.We remember you because the music you made was so good.See you in Outlaw Heaven or Hell !!! ......BadLegend1
They played this at my uncle's funeral today... But my uncle was the one singing it he covered this song 18 years ago. I hnestly think my uncle was better but now that i listen to this version they sound just alike.
Ok, it was raining this morning when I got up, and I thought of "Rainy Day Woman" which led to another song and to another song. It's now almost 5 and I've been listing to Waylon all day. Did he ever sing a bad song?
@LibertasVideos I have listened to WAYLON everyday for years and listened to hundreds of his songs never heard anything close to bad I still hear songs Waylon does and I am amazed at his talent as the first time I heard them his music helps me through many things and stages in life.TC
Nobody sings a song quite like Waylon. Even though I always associated this song more with Kenny Rodgers, I really enjoy Waylon's version. Anything Waylon works for me.
@Kingocharity This Dumb list you put here,MUST be removed you are the C&W CLOWN of World.Anyone trying to put a list, it will awalys be Flawed.its a matter of OP. Putting Marty13 Jim14 Ray12 NO Gibson,Faron,Watson,Campbell etc. shows your list has no Merit; its a matter of opinion, My op is Johnny Talker or Willie could NEVER make my LIST Just my OPINION Marty@1 Jim@2Don@3.
I like Waylon, one of my favorites. Johnny Cash is the best of all time though Charity. But Waylon's right up there too, as is George, Merle, Hank (JR and SR) and all the good old boys. Even Webb Pierce, Buck Owens, Ray Price, Ernest Tubb...the list goes on and on.
Actually, you're are mistaken hcb176, the best ever is as follows: George Jones = #1 Waylon Jennings = #2 Hank Williams = #3 Merle Haggard = #4 Conway Twitty = #5 Johnny Cash = #6 Willie Nelson = #7 Hank Williams Jr. = #8 David Allan Coe = #9 Gary Stewart = #10 Lefty Frizzell = #11 Ray Price = #12 Marty Robbins = #13 Jim Reeves = #14 Randy Travis = #15
There is no way you can put these people in a ranked list.You cant cmpare them like that,they are all great in their own way and all unique.The whole era would not be complete without any of them.Every one you have listed here will always be bigger than life and live on forever.
Kenny Rogers wrote this song for Jesse and Waylon, mostly Jesse, as she struggled to get Waylon straight. It says alot that Waylon recorded his own version of it...
Actually, Kenny wrote this song in about 15-20 minutes after the 1st edition broke up and realized he could't stay young forever. Do a youtube search for "Kenny Willie and Kenny" and watch the video.. he explains it.

If you like this song, you should hear Reba McEntire sing it!!! Not to be rude, Waylon is great, but I think Reba sings it better! Listen to her and tell me what you think!!!
@Richman1494 I just listened to Reba McEntire's version, she has a beautiful voice! It gave me chills to listen to her. And Waylon, we miss and love you.
Lee Mitchell, oh honey, this is your song! You're a helluva singer and a powerful man. You touched my soul with your beautiful song...honey, I love youxxxxxxKelly
Thank you waymoreblues for thinking about others. I was in the generation of the "Outlaws" and Waylon was a leader and still is. Sweet Music Man could be a commentary for many of us.
now if you started reading this dont stop its really scary!ok send this to five other videos in 143 minutes. when you are done press F6 and your crushes name will appear on the screen in big letters this is weird because it does work.
