Waylon Jennings - Where Corn Don't Grow

[88dancingbear]

Awesome! And hixjim is right about Twitt, he can't hold a candle to the Wayl !!! R.I.P.

[hixjim]

Travis Twitt can't hold a candle to Waylon!!!!!

[SuperJamesrice]

Waylon's always Great to listen to....Jim

[kattsvh]

So much Waylon music that i have never heard, and i loved listening to Waylon my whole life!

[MrTops2100]

Great song by a handsome devil.

[TheDonnellymarie]

This is the first I have heard this track. Thank you for posting it up. Waylon is one of my favourite country outlaws! I shed a tear when this great man departed this world. Keep the faith ,keep it country!  Mind you his handsome talented son is on the track, a divine tribute to his father.

[420thecraziwhiteboi]

502 vs 4...

[MrARYANBROTHER]

four people are city folks.....

[newriverbill]

Travis and Waylon did a great job on this one , but come on ,it's Waylon Jennings for heavens sake.All of his are great

[jlouable]

Husband says thanks for posting. He 's a real Waylon fan.

[speedstersaccount]

I sure miss Waylon.

[WAYNEMARLAR]

Nuff Said......

[bigsitz1]

4 people are retarded.

[jeffrohamrick04]

i was raised in north georgia i remeber playin hide and seek in his corn feilds i sure do miss those days maybe one day my kids and my kids kids will do the same on same land i was raised

[TheWhitestone777]

I curently live near San Diego where I retired from 32 years of truckin...I still rember drivin through the midwest early in the morning and smelling the rich dirt and the corn listening to Waylon and Travis on my stereo drivin my long hood Pete and listening to twin straight stacks.

[TheLRamos1]

I loved Waylon More than any of the older generation which I am joining at a alarming rate! Waylon was way awesome a voice so pure and no he did not become a legend following the rules but Boy is he ever a legend , he lives on in many hearts across this great land !

[ryaktr]

Waylon's the original...Accept no substitutes! lol

[Nakazny]

This is one of the great voices in country music.

[GARTV101]

there will never be another waylon

[goecotom]

@ your right

[Binkii70]

i love this cover...damn

[bps1110]

@Binkii70 This is not a cover . Travis covered it.

[hazelmay64]

@Binkii70 What cover? LOL! This is the original.

[tannerturlington]

Hard times are real. I was raised most of my 17 yrs of life in the country. We have been in the city for five yrs. I miss the country life. Where I could piss outside and not offend anything but critters. I miss how I could listen to my Country music loud as it would go. I miss the dusty Texas fields. The smell of fresh cut hay. Im just a good ol country boy and all I will ever be. God Bless.

[techdeckdude245]

@tannerturlington im only 13 but i agree.but now every summer i head down to my grandpas farm so i can do all that stuff.but you cant do that stuff in the city without pissin a few off.

[TheArnAnderson]

This is real county

[tobyjoe431]

waylon is the man another one of my late husband favorite songs and waylon was he hero. we were from the country and raised on a farm we thought of parents every time we heard the song we were 17 and 18 when we left home

[classiccntry]

Waylon's voice has everything in it. Diamonds, pearls, and other jewels of magnitude. In other words, one of the richest voices for singing that could ever be.

No, I'll be stupid and say I dislike it.

[mihija87]

If any of yall like Bluegrass, you should check out The Grascals version.  It's pretty good, too!

[ricktem1]

love this song felt this way as kid in arkansas now long to go back to the old place and old times

[mbellamy6783]

I have to admit, Im a beachbum, parrothead through and through. Grew up in Myrtle beach, SC. But I love the outlaws. Waylon, willie, Johnny, and Kris. Waylond and Johnny are my favorites. I love waylon's voice. Its like a shot of whisky. Smooth and strong. Hits you in the soul. Great song.

[waymoreblues]

Waylon was always a mentor to Travis and they both nailed this tune IMO, but of course I'm partial to the hoss.

[shanharlmall]

Waylon's got the voice but Travis's version has that harmonica.

[archieducker]

I like Travis' version but no one can touch the Hoss!

[outlawspywv]

Travis is an great singer, But it is hard to top any of the highwaymen, willie, waylon, kris, and the imortal johnny cash!

[gregbrooll]

@outlawspywv Johnny Cash is my all time favorite. Thank God for people like you who help keep REAL country alive!

[RamJamable]

I grew up in a country "slum" I realize that I need to listen to my daddy!

[geezmane]

This is the first time i've heard Waylons version of this song...But I like it better than Travis Tritts

[chevy350jr]

So who was the original singer of this song? travis are waylon? in my my opionion i much like waylon singing this song.

[jlgbgky]

@chevy350jr Waylon was the first to record "Where Corn Don't Grow." It originally appeared on his 1990 album, "The Eagle."

[ludapips17]

@jlgbgky waylon wrote it

[senselesskiller]

@chevy350jr It peaked at #67 on the country charts surprisingly.

[39tommyboy]

@chevy350jr waylon sang this before travis was even recording his first song. but he does a good copy of it. but it sounds better with waylons deep toned voice. i met waylon one time in houston town back in 88 i was riding the rails and he was doing a show with willie nelson. him and willie really enjoyed listening to them rail road stories i carried with me. i was in shock the whole time we ate lunch that they would be interested in my life. lol godbless.

[scaler998]

it would be waylon mr tritt has done a few covers of his songs both great thou!!!

[lumpyman100]

@chevy350jr  use ur fucking head.

[tapout8982]

@chevy350jr waylon was the original singer

[41mkpz]

@chevy350jr waylon

[Frankwolf100]

@chevy350jr I love the travis tritt version this is my first time hearing the waylon jennings version. Lastnite was the first time I actually explored classic country, watched some waylon, cash, haggard videos and the old country has so much more grit than today's new country. I love it

[Brills87chevy]

i was raised in a gray old house :)

[alaziaqwin]

I miss this Man, there will never be another like him ever.

[Deeznuts641]

Waterville Wa. I can relate to this song, but in wheat.

[scoodaisy]

i am blown away. i never knew the hoss sung this. now i i know who travis was imitating. country sure does miss this legend

[ladylou13]

Loved Waylon and sure do miss him , did not know personally but just knowing he is gone saddens me , This is real country the way it should be ! RIP WAYLON

[bamadirtrider]

Grew up on a farm in the Shenandoah Valley with all the critters usually found in God's Country. Lived and worked in the city for years. I still work there but at the end of the day I head back to a little spit of land I bought and built on with two tractors, passel of implements, 4 dogs, 5 cats, deer herds, and sitting on the front porch at night, having a cold one, hearing the whippoorwills and coyote's, looking at the stars, and listening to the quiet in between! Guess I'm back to my roots!

[mroakarm]

@bamadirtrider

AMEN man, sittin on my front porch with a tin roof overhead, listening to the yotes yelping and howling under a full moon is textbook. God bless country music and country living. R.I.P HOSS

[thefinalhorseman]

this is the REAL country. not like whats on today. i love the "older' music like this!

[54321apa]

Agreed too bad they don't play this on the radio. Hell of a song, hell of a singer. However, like many not written by WJ. Argument lies in who is best singer and who is best song writer. Townes Van Zandt?

[thedmcintosh]

im only 15 but this is some good music

[Mr21Punisher21]

Im tell-en yeah theirs nothing like some Waylon after a day of hard work.

[ISAFACE1]

I just can't get into the Country music that's played on the radio today. I grew up listening to Waylon Jennings and always loved his style of music. There will never be any as great as Waylon.

[bjesse60]

True country right there !

[MrFastboy77]

ok. who's the asshole that don't like this song?

[yap350]

waylons the man

[samdon815]

my dad luvs this song

[tech09201]

Doesn't get any better than this. If is unfortunate that Nashville chooses not to market this sound anymore. As someone who is involved in the industry, I have been told by the "powers that be" that the demographic makeup of people who like this type of country is dying out. The record companies are signing younger artists and marketing to the 25 and under crowd because they have more "disposable income" to spend on merchandise and mp3 downloads.

[sumj60]

@tech09201 , ... sad but true, i do believe... as a 60 yr old , i can relate for sure. thanks, :). guess its that old "generation gap" again !, the new stuff just dont do it for me , lol, thx for telling it like it is.

[Redbuck12]

Trevor Blue Pen

[bombilla42]

HAHAHA! Around my house, this phrase has a completely DIFFERENT meaning! RIP Hoss there'll never be another like 'im.

[ASHONE26]

Thanks for posting! Love Waylon!

[keefer2111]

Waylon walks in the light with Johnny , June.

We cant say RIP you are in peace, miss ya Waylon see ya in the clouds.

[PATJANKOVIC]

soooo much better than the travis tritt cover

[shelton705]

@PATJANKOVIC

I disagree. Don't diss Travis just because he's not Waylon.

[cynlobo]

I like to think of myself asa country girl stuck inthe city... hope to goodness I can make my dream of owning my own land and living in the south comes true...Listening to Waylon andJesse reminds me of my dreams! God bless them both!

[jaysonbishop6798]

man u got to love waylon jennings wish they were still making music like this

[beerfarts2009]

Dude im only 14 miles from D.C.I hit the clubs downtown all the time

[beerfarts2009]

I dont know were you farm but its work here in Maryland

[dbergum1]

@beerfarts2009 you have to grow up in the city to understand what he means

[foreveruntamed82]

Country life is the only life for me. I've lived in the city and on a farm and immediately knew right where I was meant to be. Even went to college for agriculture. A bad day on the farm beats a good day at work any day.

[TheMousiemann]

hey bro hahahaha i know what your talking about

[jdixon1960]

outstanding!!!!

[fasterthanyou187]

i grew up playin with sticks and rocks and diggin holes in the lawn...3 and a half years ago i moved to moncton NB and yea it aint real big compared to real cities...but this damn place just aint home...Nove Scotias where its at boys...cant wait to get home

[dizzypilots1]

no way,come to texas and turn the badger lose,you'll never go back.

[morrisminor695]

yeah tthe clip with ole waylon singing this in concert has been removed why?

[ExarKenneth71]

whats up with all the videos being removed!!

[mdba4]

i have a question, i thought waylon wrote this song, then i saw somewhere that he didnt. do u know if he did or didnt?

this is probably my favorite song of all time! thank you

[sandladyvb]

You aren't alone. I thought Waylon wrote it too. It is on his Eagle cd...I bought it just because of this song. It really is one of my all time favorites. He and Travis Tritt do a great duet together singing it and both are sure great on their solos of it.

[julieyard1]

were all dying to get to the city when were little , then when we grow up we can't wait to get back to the country.

If your in the country, stay there,

you aint missing nothing in this rat race of chicago.

[CountryRebel2284]

I hear ya, I alway's lived in the country or small town then my ma and my little bro and i moved to the city and i was trapped there for 4 and half year's and it was hard as hell but i'm glad i'm back in the country.. That's the problem with them small town kid's now a day's.. They are kid's with big city dreams, But when they go there they end up doin' drugs or somethin' and alot never come back, It's a shame cuase alot of em' are good farm boys and girls.. I'm just glad i was able to get out.

[icebomb1691]

RIP Waylon your definetly a LEGEND forever and one of a kind

[ibshiner]

Travis Tritt cocered this song too, and dang near did it justice....Too bad there will never be another Waylon.

[39tommyboy]

boy i can sure go back to that small ranch in oklahoma where i grew up and i was in such a hurry to see the bright lights i couldnt wait. now i think about that old farm and the ponds i onced fished in. i have been all the way to alaska and to iraq and i ended up settling down 30 miles from that old farm. god bless.

[001Bigred]

I hear that! The more things change, the more they stay the same. We grow up champing at the bit to leave, thinkin we know it ALL. It sure don't take long to find out what you don't know, does it?

[randomnumber81]

@39tommyboy

I feel ya man. Grew up in eastern Oklahoma...thought it was terrible and backward...then I grew up and moved to a city.

A few years there and I ached for that old farm I had grown up on. I know live on the same land I was raised. Love living out here. They can have the lights and traffic. Im home with my chickens and open fields lol.

[dizzypilots1]

amen brother!

[usafairman2008]

@randomnumber81 I know how you feel, I grew up in Alabama and wanted to leave, joined the Air Force, now miss home dearly. It's like Skynyrd said, "You can take a boy out of dixieland, but you can't take old dixie from a boy"

[almahbbi]

@randomnumber81 You're a good American. I can equate as I grew up in south central OK. Simple living is good.

[anotheroldguy58]

@randomnumber81

Did the same thing,

Could not leave the values and lesson anywhere but where us simple folk live.

Thanks jl

[liabatud67]

Thanks for posting. I still tell friends and family about this song. It's one of Waylon's best.

[mammie64]

GREAT SINGER!

[Len44M]

Thanks for the music waylon. your one of the best.

[Waylonnumbr1fan]

"The Eagle" ... 1990 ...

Roger Murrah wrote many songs with/for Waylon.

He wrote the whole audio-biography, " a man called hoss" sitting in a small room with Waylon...

The Eagle was a prelude to the first Gulf War... Murrah seemed then, like some sort of prophet.

~peace

[keefer2111]

When did he record this song?

Waylon is a great piece of America.

[keefer2111]

I agree..

[6stringgunslinger]

Waylon could sing names out of a phone book and it would be beutiful.

[keefer2111]

I agree...I hope you place this song into your favorites.

[midnightwickedshadow]

amen to that

[fuzzyguyoffroad]

Damn Straight!!

[Mr21Punisher21]

@6stringgunslinger haha you goter man

[VolkerStockel]

@6stringgunslinger You are so right !

[reaperipmc]

Waylon did not write this song. It was written by Roger Murrah and Mark Allan.

[zaaritha]

One of the best!

[sherrillwallace]

This song sounds like my life. Hope the host lets my Waylon song show up here. If so and you have a minute, give a listen and rate it for me. Thanks, Sherrill

[jcb30rock]

dont forget charlie pride george jones and some good homeade wine and some good ol home grown

[wherecorngrows]

This song reminds me of the real heart and soul of America. Good and honest hard working folks. The salt of the earth if you will. God Bless all of you.

Ephesians 6 : 11-18

We are in for some hard times folks, but I know we can handle it with Gods help. STAND on the side of good and against evil.

[sandladyvb]

I love this song and think Waylon really wrote an amazing slice of life song. This song is somewhat of a secret among Waylon's outstanding music.

[jcb30rock]

waylon didnt wirte this song

[johnbacktun]

Yes he did, travis trit only did a cover.

[JLNive]

This song means a lot to me. I've moved to so many different places, both North and South.  It's message is so clear.

[9462399]

This song was very instrumental in my moving back to the country. Once I sat and figured out the weeds were getting pretty tall in my life. I know now that anyone who thinks I'm crazy for moving back just doesn't understand the country and everything that goes with it, not what it doesn't have. One of the best songs out there, bar none. Thanks Waylon.

[Musicsiren]

I always loved Travis Tritt's version of this song never realizing Waylon Jennings wrote it. I also came to enjoy Slow Movin' Outlaw from Willie and Lacey J. Dalton's version. What a songwriter this man was...what a loss to country music! I agree with some of the previous comments about country music now coming out of Nashville. There is an occassional gem, but you can tell most of today's country artists never lived a raw and rough life that breeds great music.

[bkaragias]

completely agree man. They are trying to cut gems out of coal. They don't want the troubles that the outlaws caused not realising that those troubles were what bred the originality, sincerity, and true grit that embodied true country music. I know this at 22 and they are what 40?

[Musicsiren]

I am a woman, man....hehehe! Your comment is very well stated, and those qualities you mention...originality, sincerity, and true grit...are also what made this country great. We need to look back on those cowboy qualities and get this country back on target. You're very wise for your years, thank God!

[TLcavvy]

Fuckin a.. couldnt have said it better. Fuck nashville.

[george69jones]

gotta love the greats

u always hear them on serious satalite radio on the channeles road house and outlaw country

[isabell012834]

waylon wrote this song back in the '60s. it is to bad it didn't hit no.1 for him. i still think he is the best.

[HAWGSTICKER]

nashville don't know what real country is never did

[44Snyder]

Waylon...Willie...George Jones...charlie pride...tom t hall...don williams...conway...merle...je­rry reed...glen campbell...where have they all gone?

[Barnzulla]

Those all are legends in my mind we need music like that back in Country music

[alphadogg1074]

Wiresman26 I totally agree...just cookie cutter "artists" that Nashville force feeds us anymore...no originality or creativity anymore!!

[Wiresman26]

There's not much soul/grit in country anymore...

[etool782]

Thanks for putting the original artist and version up!

Its not that talent like this doesn't exist, its that Nashville wouldn't dare put any of it out.

To find actual country and western, you need to scan the honky tonks from Austin, Texas up to Stillwater, Oklahoma.

Its really sad, because talent like this will never get a chance to be produced again. We have to listen to some REALLY shitty artists now.

Fuck Kenny Chesney and his seashell necklaces... Take your act to Tiger Beat.

[pitman342]

5 stars. Thankyou for sharing a great song by a ledgend. This is country at its best.

[rich774411]

The originals are always superior the covers.

[MusclesRUS56]

not always..

[7261968]

Waylon,Willie,Kris,Johnny,Merl­e,George are legends. There is no one else who even comes close to putting out the type of quality music they did. George Strait is the only thing close to the staying power those superstars had and still have.

[MusclesRUS56]

travis tritt! Hes up there with them

[blackricky]

Totally agree...and Don Williams

[randy123444tt]

kenny rogers is great one to

[SleisySoft]

Alan Jackson is a good one too.. Randy Travis is somewhat up there also..

[vegitoth]

Don't forget Garth Brooks

[rockyspunkin]

somewhat?

[rrbowes]

What about Gene Watson?

[PickJesus94]

those of us that love real country music like this are very fortunate.Those people that do not appreciate Don,Merle,Waylon,and Gorege Jones,etc....are simply unfortunate are they not.Nothing better than this.

[teddy468]

Nothing better than real country music, you cant hear this on the radio

[jlgbgky]

I agree. It's a real shame that we don't get to hear legends like Waylon, Merle Haggard, and Don Williams on the radio anymore. The only thing that Nashville record company executives care about is money. Sad.

Thanks for your comment.

[Rumble211]

@jlgbgky go to moose106.com out of La Crosse WI 106.7FM, a great source for those country classics

[sumj60]

@teddy468 i totally agree, very frustrating for sure, modern "country" stinks !
