  • he is tha man bac in az. there were sum mean ass outlaws

  • Country before country was cool!!! Mis Mandrel sang about it........

  • WAYLON JENNINGS IS THE FUCKING MAN 

  • "they got me for possession of  something that was gone"

  • @rookieangel88 LOONNGG GONE baby

  • @boomhauer15 actualy if you lsitened close its goneeeeeee long gone

  • @kidddogbites but rookieangle88 already said gone, i was just finishing it

  • JAMEY JOHNSON IS HERE

  • Great stuff from the Cocaine Cowboy.

  • @glimmer2158 i remember is one of his interviews his words were "i did more drugs then y'all will ever see" but the hoss is still the best

  • Love the Man and his music. No other one like him....

  • Kick Ass Fucking KICK ASS BEAT!!

  • I heard James Hetfield's cover of this and thought it was amazing, so had to check out the original. This is great :D

  • he is great!

  • Never be another Waylon! The direction country music has taken these days is a crying shame! Just about anything post 1990 ain't worth listening to. Waylon… Willie… George… Merle….that my friend is country music!

  • why argue bout hetfield doin this song? it was done as a tribute to waylon, couse hetfield apreciates it, not to do it better. and yeah, he did it well. but we all know waylons is better couse its his!

  • Who in the fuckin hell is James Hetfield?

  • @JPJG2009 lead singer of Metallica. He did a cover of this song for CMT Outlaws on tv a while back.

  • @JPJG2009 oh just the singer of the 5th largest selling act in American history....

  • @JPJG2009

    James Hetfield is the front-man of probably the biggest heavy metal band of all time. You should check out his cover, it's really good, but in a different way.

  • @MrTallica4lifegbrtdy heh, metallica is huge but hardly the biggest, top 5 maybe, and besides, after burton died it all went downhill, theyre little more then bubblegum pop now

  • @turxx666

    Name one bigger then, oh you're one of those guys. Go get hit by a mango truck.

  • @MrTallica4lifegbrtdy iron maiden, black sabbath, slayer, ac/dc, all of which, by the way, also never sold out for the pop album sales either

  • @turxx666

    None of them are bigger dude, go spill your sellout shit on a Megadeth video, where everyone will praise your name.

  • @MrTallica4lifegbrtdy define "biggest of all time", been around longer? more albums? more albums sold world wide? more loyal fan base? better check your figures

    its like saying george straight isnt bigger then garth brooks

  • @MrTallica4lifegbrtdy the last truly _GREAT_ album metallica made was puppets, which is probably before your time

    back when the industry spat on them and they did what they wanted anyhow and still went platinum

  • I like both Hetfield's version and this version but seriously why argue over which one is better, they are both good. It's stuff like Hetfields cover that got me into country in the first place. He covered it because he likes it and it helps the younger generation hear it and appreciate it!

  • @condemned72 I agree, they are two totally different versions anyways, im Sure James's intentions weren't trying to make it better, Hes respecting a great man and i Love that james did that

  • Get the fuck out of here with that James Hetifield shit. Waylon would whoop james with one hand tied back behind his back.. then fuck his wife and make little james watch.

  • @TBRAMPAGE Lol i don't think so bud

  • Waylon did it the best. NUFF SAID

  • thumbs up if you watch the James´s cover before this :)

  • @mondrometal Thumbs down you fucking new age tool

  • @TBRAMPAGE hhahaha idiot xd

  • @TBRAMPAGE quit being a bitch. 

  • @empreme suck my dick

  • @TBRAMPAGE No, maybe you'd like Waylon to suck your dick? Oh wait, he's dead

  • @empreme Maybe ud like a dedicated Waylon Jennings fan to get a lil OUTLAW on you !!! Sounds like you need it...

  • @empreme your a fag

  • @holbart76 You're*

    If you're going to insult me please do it right. If that's the best you can come up with get off the internet.

  • THE ROOM FILLED UP WITH LAW .!!!

  • the way i see it i love metal, but i also love classic country, just goes to show its not about genres, its all about talent and sadly, most of todays artists jus dont kno that

  • love this song & all of waylon's songs! he had a great band too! he was one of my favorite country singers!

  • Great!

  • nice ;o

  • I like the original but me being a huge metallica fan I like the James Hetfield version better. That's just my opinion.

  • The slower version released on 'Waylon Forever' and called 'Outlaw $h!t' is a little better, but this version ain't bad either. Mom and I call 'Outlaw $h!t' a probable response of Waylon's to the events 9/11/2001, though that could be far from the truth. When did he release his last studio album before he passed?

  • @Patriot1776 - 'Never Say Die: live' was his last album released during his lifetime. released OCT 2000.

  • waylon said once that he started doing cocaine because him and his band could stay up for days and record better music. lol then it got to be a little habit for a while. shooter said once that guns and roses didnt have crap on waylon and willie when they partyed. he said his dad and willie used to do over $1500 dollars a day. and this song is about the time he got arrested for cocaine.

  • Probably by favourite Jennings song.

    And Het did it justice.

  • hetfield should record a country album! seriously..

    great song:)

  • Im wondering what he´ll be doing after Metallica. I dont know, they cant go on till they are 65 or sth.

    But he sure can still do some country then...

    or sth else that is less physically challenging^^

  • An OUTLAW country album you mean! :) Bring Willie Nelson in too for a couple songs on top of that on it!

  • One of his best songs.

    RIP Waylon.

  • Country music as expected to be played

    He missed that flight with Buddy Holly to give us 40 years of GREAT MUSIC!!

  • @WyoCowboy86 why do you think he did soo many screwed up things after that?

    He dodged a bullet that was labeled occupant

  • @WyoCowboy86 amen brother

  • i like waylons slower version(the one with shit instead of bit) better but this ones not bad either

  • yeaaaaaaaahhhhh

  • Like the version with James Hetfield so much better than this .

  • cause ur a metal head

  • Heartland - Willie Nelson

  • Drunk again,thanks for the music!

  • Comment removed

  • it's a good sogn when it plays

  • WHY can't the country music scene put out singers like this anymore.....

  • @imaliberal Because sadly my friend pop sells more. Real country music will never die, just the record distributors. So long live the outlaw in all of us.

  • @imaliberal Because they only want "pretty people" and are not worried about how well they sing. It's a trend that started just after music videos started being made.

  • @imaliberal they do! there just all down recording in texas and never make it to nashville! texas red dirt country

  • @imaliberal ...sad to say, but the 'music' today, is much like cars, TVs, appliances, etc. It just isn't made to last. Music today has become disposable...load your mp3 player with the latest hits, play them until you're sick of it, then forget about it when the 'next big thing' comes around. Thankfully, my parents kept their old records and 8-tracks. Otherwise, I'd never know great music like this.

  • @ken41978 those are MY WORDS man.. exactly the same! lucky to have some of you still out there.

  • @imaliberal Because sadly, its not all about the music anymore. It's more about putting something attractive out there that sells and makes money. Thats why you have pop/country today. Its not real country AT ALL. Yet the beautiful young faces make sell. Its all BULL!

  • @imaliberal unfortunately its because A) people who like modern country are pussies who for the most part live in suburban America and have never seen a West Virginia trailer park or coal mine or anything like that and B) cause in order to make it in music bussiness today you just need the right connections; has nothing to do with talent.

  • @bigal1226

    Its more about a formula then anything else. and it is not just now it has been in music since the 50s. Country music in the 60s was just as bad as it was today, except for a handful of artist who did their own thing like Waylon, Hank Jr, Hag and you can go on. Nashville is a money making factory

  • @imaliberal I think its because there rapped up in the money and forget about the music.

  • @imaliberal because these college music major hippies the nashville record companies are putting out today have no idea what the real world is or how to write/record their own music. it's all spoon fed pop b.s. luckily for us the outlaws recorded enough music to last us all a lifetime and after I die it won't matter anymore because i'll be listening to their new tunes w/them in heaven son.

  • Awesome!!!!  None better than Waylon

  • i saw a thing on cmt about a year ago about the top 40 country artist of all time. waylon was no. 5. i thought that was a disgrace. i like johnny cash but waylon put him to shame in my opinion

  • Waylon Jennings is great!

  • have yall heard the original? its alot better but this is still good but the other version sends chills up my spine

  • Sound quality-great. Waylon will never be replaced, no matter what, doesn't matter what the song "means", it's Waylon, and that's the important part. He is one of the ones that will never, ever be replaced by anyone....who's gonna fill their shoes?

  • Waylon has left us the next best thing. Check out his son Shooter Jennings Electric Rodeo album If you close your eyes on certain songs you swear it's ole Waylon........

  • Don't yall think this outlaw shit has done got out of hand?

  • Now children get a grip.

  • talentless? i find your ignorance funny. What talents do you have that better James HeTfields?

  • Both are talented. Both were good friends and while some don't like Load and ReLoad, Waylon Jennings was influential in their bluesy sound. Metallica's "Out Law Torn," "Unforgiven II," and "Until It Sleeps" are good examples.

  • wtf, why did you reply to me?

  • b/c i can

  • that's why i attend a conservatory, because i'm talentless =)

    Stupid fool. Get a life.

  • Means i actually got talent in music and study it. Just because i can.

    And by the way, my mother passed away 4 years ago, so i can't.

  • sure could all you need is a shovel...thats doesnt mean you have talent, now lets all have a good cry for this lying little untalentless bitch

  • ooooooooyeeeeeeeeee

  • "was it singin' thru my nose that got me busted by the man? "

    I wonder what Willie thought about that line.

  • That line is about doin cocaine. this song is about gettin busted in the studio by the cops.. after the coacane was " long gone". not about willie at all.

  • NONE SHALL PASS

  • yeah im through with that bozo,fucking low-life,fuck 'em

  • waz it singin' thru my nose that got me busted by the man!!!

  • shut the fuck up,james hetfeild has a great country voice,just listen to "mamma said" and "ronnie" from the "Load" album.and metallica never dressed up as goths you ignorant twat.

  • pussy bitch

  • well you've just made a fool of yourself havn't you?

  • i think you have no idea what his music and style is about ! James rocked this song so much (and when did he actually look like a vampire??...you better go to an optician and get glasses!)...it only was his interpretation of this song...so what is your problem?...is it, that metal is existing?...well save your anger and your fuckin' words against shit like britney spears or paris hilton!...those people have no idea of MUSIC! And P.S. you definetly right "slantyrock"!!! Sorry for my bad english^^

  • you are dead right,its bands like metalica,danzig and pantera which led me to respect counry music,people like james actually turn metal fans onto country,and people like david allen coe turn country listeners onto metal,alls good (good english too)

  • those bands are for white people who think they contributed to music....that is a big fucking joke

  • ok,answer this smart ass,why did johny cash ask glenn danzig to write a song for him,then some more songs because he liked the first one so much?THERES YOUR FUCKING CONTRIBUTION DICKHEAD.also glenn danzig is recording stuff with Hank the 3rd.

  • ok ill tell you why he did that...because by the 80's those guys were going broke so i dont fault cash for trying to feed his family and secondly who cares about hank the third? stupid fucking white people your supposed to give the blues not get them YOU HAVE NOTHING

  • actually danzig was broke in the 80's and began making good money in the early 90's,i beleive hes still quite succesful although i dont like his new music,so fuck you,and whats with the stupid white people shit?grow up you loser,

  • Douchebag... its people like piff daddy and 2Pac and big e smalls thatrip off music that us "white" people write and add a rap track to it. Top of my head... when Puff ripped off kashmir to write that stupid song from the Godzilla soundtrack

  • fuck your mother you un-educated slut...do you really think it makes you any less a repressed homosexual to listen to that metal bullshit?

  • wow james hetfield rocks this song much better!

  • what u doin here than?

  • it done has!!!! and guys like hankIII make the shit worse. shooter has an incredible version of this song

  • outlaw bit done got out of hend rocks

  • Waylon is the god of the highwaymen

  • So this song was played in Standard Tuning while James' version was played in E-Flat?

    Btw they're both great.

  • James probably plays it in E flat to better suit his vocal range

  • Waylon is the best country music singer ever

  • Both this version and hetfeilds version are excellent.

    Stop your bickering children,

  • waylon the best

  • love this song!!!This song was a true story he got busted for something a magazine said

  • Yeah, he got busted in the recording studio recording Hank's New South album. His drummer quickly flushed the evidence before the law busted the door down.

  • yep Waylon was cool I Always did love his music and him! My favorite country singer(RIP)

  • whats up w/ all the Hetfield Hate. I guess no one knows the story of "Wasting My Hate" by MetallicA. and James Did a Kick Ass job on the cover.

  • amen

  • "I think that this here outlaw bit's done got outta hand."

  • I first heard his voice in that "kid friendly" of Angry Beavers

  • Shut your mouth dickhead,,Hetfield is the king!!

    U just a bitch compare to him!!

  • U called him a shithead!!!

    Its true this is a comment area,, but please keep your comments to yourself next time,,cause they suck!!

  • Hetfield > you

  • look n listen! Thats all we peseants can do!!

    he moves me!!!

  • My favorite Waylon song. We miss u Waylon!!

  • i love this song

  • waylon we love you man.wayne

  • fak ya my fav to watasha s the man

  • biscay, why can't people like you sit back and appreciate that future generations of musicians are paying tribute to waylon and other greats?

  • u have tow ppl doing this song waylon and james hetfeld can any body tell me who did it first

  • Waylon did it first. It's a true story.

  • cool thanks

  • You're a fuckin idiot! Did you know that they were actually friends? Check some of your facts before making yourself look like a dumbass.

  • You should shut your mouth and just listen to the music. I don't like hearing you put down one of the greatest singers of all time. Waylon wouldn't like you talking about him that way. Johnny Cash wouldn't either because for a while in the 60s they were roomates.

  • James Hetfield of Metallica did a very good version of this song.

  • COCAINE

  • a true ledgend

    and hes singin my story

  • My favorite Waylon song. Thanks for adding it!

  • Waylon will always be the best R.I.P.
