[lucjennes]

[timlamiamify]

[Werner170]

@timlamiamify Has Willie Nelson ever been young?

[LSMuglia]

When Johnny started singing I had chills. What a song.

[kaityxpineau]

I miss you WAYLON and JOHNNY ihope your making sweet music in heaven

[TimD3KK3RS]

All Stars!

[general18089]

Gutiar plugs are for suckers ( sorry Willie )

[general18089]

Waylon is the best and he wears the mullet as a tribute to 1970s Texas

[arinvests]

Excellent song by all of them ~ Arthur

[Pedy1968]

7 Justin Bieber fans...

[nouseforaliver]

thank god Cash & haggard never rocked the mullet

[strawman8]

Hey this is country....thanks to snewdaz and to Pat where I borrowed it.....now I'd like to buy that cd..........thanks man.

[velmuvelho]

7 people followed her along the Big River all the way to Baton Rouge.

[weman500]

7 people need a good beating

[Rodnox]

Sometimes I sit on YouTube and think: "Let's just listen to some great music". And no matter what kind of music I start off with. Is it Rock, or Soul, or Pop. Eventually I will end up here ....

[paintballgod33]

I'd rather hear the Highwaymen fart into tuba's than any "new" country artist sing on their best day!

[davehank31]

absolut spitze

[bellringer30]

absolutely brilliant

[aspencer73]

@juggalokilla222 If u look real close you can see Waylons wireless transmitter on the back of his guitar strap!!

[juggalokilla222]

@aspencer73 lol yeah yeah yeah It still looks funny, Im a big fan of his but still funny.

[holymoly525]

seven people just don't appreciate good fuckin music. they're ears are up thier asses

[juggalokilla222]

Its funny how Waylon does the same little dance with his guitar thats not even plugged in.

[Noldi400]

@juggalokilla222 Never heard of wireless?

[juggalokilla222]

@Noldi400 No im fucking retarded, whats wireless? Verizon? Suck my dick its funny.

[coleyman1]

@juggalokilla222 Last song of the set. Heading for the bus but he has a remote on his guitar strap. He is a very acomplished player when he wants to be, however. Watch him on "Did Hank Really Do It This Way" and see him do his thing...

[kayed15]

Music doesn't get any better than this! AWESOME!

[42Sparky13]

@kayed15 Yet people still call themselves "artists"

[jaysnzadventures]

total legends , love this song.

[1978Highwayman]

geniaal gewoon deze gasten

[ilsemako]

großartig.......

[jehovahuponyou]

'YES', KRISSY - IT IS POETRY - SO DO US ALL A FAVOR - LEAVE IT THE FUCK ALONE!

[42Sparky13]

@jehovahuponyou Shut the fuck up. Leave Kri Kristofferson alone. He's better than you'll ever be! He don't talk shit like you do.

[42Sparky13]

Shut the fuck up! If your just gonna be an asshole to someone you cant even compare to, then keep your fuckin' comments to your faggoty-ass self! Why do you insist on being a troll?!

[jehovahuponyou]

@42Sparky13 - LOOK LIL BABY TROLL - GO BACK AND PLAY WITH YOUR AIR-SOFT GUN AND LEAVE THE BIG BOYS ALONE - THE REASON I DON'T SLASH YOU OFF AT THE KNEES IS BECAUSE YOU ARE A CHILD OF ELEVEN - NO GO PLAY G I JOE - SPANKYBABY!

[42Sparky13]

@jehovahuponyou Nah Dawg. You got My age wrong, my favorite games wrong and my weaponry wrong. I don't know how a ten inch steel blade is "Airsoft"

[jehovahuponyou]

@42Sparky13 - 'NAH DAWG'? - NOW YOU WANNA BE BLACK - LMFAO!

LOOK, SPARKY, YOU HAVE SOME SIGNS OF A SENSE OF HUMOR AND SOME COMMON SENSE - DON'T LOSE IT ALL ON AN IDENTITY CRISIS - YOU ARE A 14 YEAR OLD WHITE BOY, NOT RAMBO OR SHAFT EITHER ONE. YOUR KNIVES WILL ONLY GET YOU HURT - CHOOSE YOUR FRIENDS WISELY, BUT CHOOSE YOUR ENEMIES EVEN MORE CAREFULLY.

YOU LIKE KRISSY, I DON'T - I MADE A JOKE, YOU ATTACKED ME - JUST LIGHTEN UP LIL BRO, KRISSY WOULDN'T DEFEND YOU - BUT, I GIVE HIM...

[jehovahuponyou]

@jehovahuponyou - CONTINUED:

...THIS, HE WROTE SOME GREAT SONGS - BUT THAT IS WHERE MY COMPLIMENTS TO HIM STOP.

SPARKY, I AM AN OLD GUY, KNOW HOW I GOT TO BE OLD? CHOOSING THE BATTLES I FOUGHT, AND I ASSURE YOU, MY YOUNG FRIEND, KRISSY AIN'T WORTH DYING OVER - STUDY OUT HIS LIFE, ESPECIALLY THE PART ABOUT A RELATION WITH A YOUNG LADY BLUES SINGER, YOU YOURSELF MIGHT CHANGE YOUR MIND ABOUT LIL OLE KRISSY.

AND STOP PLAYING WITH THOSE DAMN KNIVES - YOU GONNA PUT YOUR EYE OUT - ROFL!

[jehovahuponyou]

@juggalokilla222 - NO, ACTUALLY I DON'T - BUT IT WAS SURE NICE OF YOU TO OFFER - BUT IT BEHOOVES ME TO ASK, WHERE WOULD A LIL BITCH LIKE YOU GET A COCK, WERE YOU GONNA BORROW ONE TO GIVE TO ME - NOW, PRISS YOUR PUSSY ASS AWAY - THANKS!

[jehovahuponyou]

@juggalokilla222 - A HICK RANKS MUCHER HIGHER ON THE SCALE OF LIFE THAN DOES A KRISSY OR A TONE DEAF PERSON - SO, THANKS A MILLION!

[jehovahuponyou]

@juggalokilla222 - OH, SO KRISSY IS ON TOP, SO THAT MEANS HE IS THE MAN IN YOUR RELATION - WELL, HOW INTERESTINGLY FAGGOTFIED. BEING NEXT TO LAWYERS AND CAR SALESMAN STILL RANKS US HICKS FAR ABOVE YOU, FOR YOU ARE A BEHIND ZIPPER FEEDER. THIS 'LIFE' YOU SPEAK OF, I SEE YOU HAVE ONE, A LIFE OF RANTING AND BITCHING ON YOU-TUBE ABOUT SHIT YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT - WOW, HOW EXCITING!

WELL, I BETTER GO, YOU DEGRADED LITTLE CUNT, BEFORE YOU HAVE A HEART-ATTACK AND WASTE A 911 OPERATORS TIME!

[jehovahuponyou]

@juggalokilla222 - SEE, EVEN YOU ADMIT WE HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON!

ROFL!

[juggalokilla222]

@jehovahuponyou lmao your too funy man.

[jehovahuponyou]

@juggalokilla222

;^)

[42Sparky13]

@jehovahuponyou Shut the fuck up, asshole

[Cabal777]

Singing Whistler. LOL

[lmohawk822]

1:35.. yeah that's the boss!

[DzRScreamooGaming]

i love this song

[alenzamet96]

Poetry as the man said. ^

[crowjs]

Great song , love it every time i hear it.

[seyiezhunyu]

Who could write a song like this but Johnny cash.

[paykenny]

4 greats in one place

[joshy1066]

As brilliant as this song is. Cash seems to be miming and his lip sync is completely out.

[JenzzDoubleJzz]

@joshy1066 It's just the audio going out of sync with the video

[MrDrewlips]

Lets give the genius behind the scene some credit - Ian Tyson.

[MrDavemw0mwl]

No one could better this Big River by these four brilliant artists Kris was right when he said this is poetry, you can't get any better!!

[pikkdogs]

In the words of wayne and garth

We're not worthy, We're not worthy.

[derdriui]

Johnny's voice and timing ... what an incredible gift.

[ArmoredSaint2010]

...

[hoverhawk1]

The greatest, and the harmonica ties it all together. Love em al , but Waylon's voice and Willie's nasal tones are the best.

[randy25rhoads]

I love them all, but Waylon's voice still gives me goosebumps sometimes.

[Juicefani11]

@randy25rhoads He has a great voice. I just can't belive why the heck do people love Cash more than Waylon. I think ol' Waylon is the greatest.

[Roscoejoko]

@Juicefani11 Waylons voice is awesome but cash's songs are filled with passion, i listen to both but cash in my opinion is the greatest artist ever

[uglymoon78]

@Roscoejoko well, it all boils down to personal taste, you know, which is a matter that is hard to discuss.

[wendellcw000]

6 people wear skinny jeans

[Bricquet1]

@wendellcw000 Now thats funny!

[TheSully1969]

Great stuff!

[JRCash1985]

This shit is the best !! Love from Holland

Please check out Dirty Cash - 18 miles to memphis ! that;s my band !

[ruffestneckaround]

Johnnys original blows this away though...seriously

[icucnme]

Cavortin in Davenport!  QCBD!

[indyroadglide]

I could cry a river watching this video

[mkgfragrances]

"...And I'm gonna sit right here until I die" LISTENING to this song!!! Highwaymen, YEAH!! Willie, Waylon, Cash and Chris, great pros forever.

[mongrelseason]

johnny cash is king!!!!

[alenzamet96]

Wohooooooo!!!

[aussieblokeable]

aint nothing better than this................australia

[hankjrfan3]

Man, how could you not like that shit.?

[joanwashere]

Besides loving all the Highwaymen / songs etc - Reggie Young, really makes the music gel.

[jamesrfraser1]

I think I first fell for this in 1958. I've been a Cash fan ever since. Jim Fraser

[alenzamet96]

this is my new fav. song :D

[DrVegasIII]

Thumbs up for Willies mullet!!!! AND Davenport my hometown, where I cavort!

[geohabe]

Any of these guys could sing the phone book, and it would be worth listening to!

[TheAlfielee]

@geohabe absolutely



[TheCliffPhilShow]

@geohabe right on geo!

[theravingpunk]

@geohabe haha that's brilliant, damn true too!!

[wolfkarel]

@geohabe God isn't that the Truth!

[alenzamet96]

[DMEB]

[MusicLove092]

[confolenscharente]

I stay in France and I like the four guys. Magic !

[brian1958usgrant]

this is still johnny 's song

[javierburboa]

The Best of the Best, next to Hank Williams Sr!

[Norton51]

I'm not from the states, but Johnny Cash is the man. His voice always gives me goose bumps. Great, great song. Tremendous singer. - I love the highwaymen, but he was by far the best.

[prettytiger20]

I agree!!!!!!!!!

[paykenny]

pure genius

[DMEB]

perfect!

[MRRIFLEMAN308]

go check out Jamey Johnson, hes the real deal! The has his 2nd album "That Lonsome Song" and hes has 2 new albums comming out in September 16th. He rerecorded 2 Waylon song on "That Lonesome Song". Hes the real deal. Real Country!

[DonnyHaze91]

"thats poetry, as good as it gets"

[dudeawho]

dude willies mullet is the worst> great song!

[marydutch]

@dudeawho who cares he is Willie Nelson!!

[dizastruz]

in the words of david allen coe....if that aint country, ill kiss ur ass

[jrbj2000]

I dont know about yall but it sure looks like these men are playing them guitar's to me!!!!!

I dont know what you was watching @hrica

[SallyStrat]

Waylon was the best singer ever he will never be matched

[hrica]

AWSOME!! but why do the Highwaymen have guitars when ....they are not really playing them here..

[276merton]

@hrica because they did for decades and no longer had to

[WOODYSKYM]

I Like The Highwaymen's Version Of This Tune Better Than Johnny Cash's Solo Version. These Guys Were The Greatest Super Group Of All Time!!!

[tilley014]

This is where the real deal was!!!!!!!!

[Protogrolldroid]

It's the music i grew up with cos my parents worked some time in the usa und brought the music with them back to Germany again. i just love it. And the Highwaymen... they're somehow an essence of my favorite country music artists.

[ynnor2z]

This one really knocked me out!

[rafitauribe]

this is what i call country music

[PeetieING]

Awesome, they are so great. Listen once again.

I really like american country music.

Respect from Hungary.

[arandomninja]

lol check out willie's mullet.

[mongo5888]

Waylon and Johnny are my personal favorites out of the four but every single one of these guys are incredibly talented and looking at how many fans they have is proof of that.

[kingston0708]

too many legends on one clip!!

[willis7i]

so cool best ever

[marydutch]

Great !!

[telsport]

Did Roger Miller write this?

He did a musical by that name...

Please?

Tom in Utica

[ceejaelovescats]

No, Roger did not write Big River. It was written and sang by Johnny Cash and released on Sun Records as a single in 1958.

[FireYourJOB]

Mark my worDs: Mitt Romney will be PresiDent in 2012...

[Rodnox]

@FireYourJOB

who cares

[dldwiggins]

I'll believe that if you can explain how a Mormon from Massachusetts gets to be leader of the Republican Party.

Till then, well, not so much.

[dakelhdenes]

Awesome !!! Great !!! The Best Highway Men

[GokuGreg2001]

our*

[GokuGreg2001]

rodnox,you hit it on the head.

no wonder opur country is dying,nothing but scum all around on the tv,music,public office,what not else.

[Rodnox]

Just an awesome tune .... wish some of today's musicians could get them-self together and create such genius music. But there is too much Beyonce and other crap around ...

[kingston0708]

total quality! they dont make them like that anymore.

[flynlulus]

Johnnys on top of it... sounds great.

[kywoman1950]

WOW ! Never get any better then this video.Listen to the legends.Thanks so much for this vid.I have enjoyed your channel tonight.Listen to more tomorrow,

Jeez how time flyes when your havin' fun.

:-) Had a grand time thank you....Maggster

[ab217ez]

It does not get any better than this and the band is something special!!

[gokadgo]

tout simplement magique!!

[pedaphelps]

they were havin such a good time doing this tour

[jwdundon]

They need to get a couple new guys and 'ride again'....

Immagine, if Toby, Alan, Willy, Kris all on stage together????

[BruinsBuckShot77]

@jwdundon i can only imagine how bad that would be.... besides Willy and Kris.. who else would be good?

[PriestsandParamedics]

No.

[dglehman89]

Waylon sings this song very well, adds a little pep to the song

[Rodnox]

WOW ! .. just WOW!

[garmurphy13]

CRY CRY CRY

[gee34]

Just curious was Hank Jr. ever asked to be a part of them?

[Rodnox]

well, there's only two people left to ask .. let's jope you'll ever get a chance to ask them ....

[PriestsandParamedics]

Hank Jr. is a disgrace.

[getkwunk84]

agreed

[Jack8the8Ripper]

Hank III is not

[154Sniper]

@PriestsandParamedics

Hank Jr. Is awesome,how dare you insult him,post a video of you singing better otherwise shut up and just listen to that shitty rap or somthing!

[meneerpaul]

@154Sniper

You mean the Hank Jr. who played for the Sarah Palin campaign? :(] Sorry, but stopped taking him serious.

[serickson20021]

taught the weeping willow how to???

[Rodnox]

cry cry cry

[girllovesmusic]

@serickson20021- how to cry cry cry

[girllovesmusic]

whoops- how'd I miss that this question was already answered? 3 cheers for paying attention... haha

Great song!

[Rodnox]

@PriestsandParamedics

1.) He isn't even in the video, how come you mention that here?

2.) You are a disgrace if you cant respect a man that has dedicated his life to music!

3.) I bet a Million, Hank made better Music that you will ever do ...

[PriestsandParamedics]

@Rodnox

1.) If you read the comment that I am replying to BEFORE you reply, you may understand.

2.) Hank Williams Jr. sold his soul to the mainstream music industry and is part of what is killing real musicians in Nashville.

3.) I never once stated that I am a musician nor am I making music so your argument is invalid.

Furthermore if you want to hear the real Hank's, go listen to Sr. and III.

/thread.

[spagNsc]

The Dead are Alive playing this Now...

[GrizzlTooth]

O'l waylon changes up the lyrics a bit there

[JimCashFan]

If you refer to the verse he sings at 1:36, actually that's an extra verse Johnny originally wrote when he wrote the song but it was cut to make the song shorter for recording and it's only been recorded a few times.

[GrizzlTooth]

Incredibly cool insight. Thanks man!

[ridemfast55]

This is cool!

[redsox5360]

if u dont like waylon or johnny get out of the usa

[grannymammy2]

@redsox5360 or come into !

[Mugsel]

@redsox5360 That's poetry...... No one beats Waylon - the real deal!!

[ljmacintosh]

@Mugsel its johnnys song

[augeight]

@redsox5360 F ing -Amen brother!!!! What you said sums it up perfectly! If you don't like Waylon or Mr Cash I'll deport you myself. Country boy don't him around any how!

[MLFive]

@redsox5360 I love them to bits but I'm dutch, can I come in?

[Juicefani11]

@redsox5360 And if someone leaves USA don't come to Finland. Y'all get the same answer here too...

[steve2275]

@redsox5360

and dont come back

[horatiosux]

they did this with Trick Pony also, very well. anyine know what became of Trick Pony?

[priceranch]

Trick Pony broke up, but Heidi Neufield ( I think I have her last name right) is performing.
