  • only thing missing is some steele guitar

  • Hey Schooter, are you sure, your dad done it this way?

  • every body has there opnion. i like shooter, he keeps it real and does not change unlike many artists these days who bend at whim of the suits

  • the best part is the tom sawyer end

  • I just looked up the definition of crap in the dictionary ane they had a picture of

    Shooter in there.  Go Figure.

  • No 2 artists are alike i think he done a great job with this...only thing missin is "Waylons Guitar" but still like it

  • 10 people are idiots.

  • I listened to waylon do this song a million times and I tell you right now, Waylon would be proud and kick anyone's ass who didn't like it.

  • I'm sure you could do so much better jimw350, it's easy to be a judgmental piece of shit hiding behind a keyboard and monitor huh?

  • Damn this kid is just terrible, Why embarrass you daddy?

    Get a job and stop making music, You suck

  • Who cares "why" he does it. When your the son of the best thing that ever happened to country music you can sing it for any reason you like.

  • 19Truth53, your a fucking idiot. Do a little research before opening that big ignorant hole in your head next time

  • @okctechy Awesome! LOL

  • For the 9 of you that think Shooter is tryin to ride his daddy's coat-tails; you should take a look around country music since Waylon; There are a WHOLE LOT of em tryin to ride his coat-tails!!!! Good Take Shooter!!! Keep "Slow Rollin' Low"

  • Sweeet!

  • Aint nepotism great?

  • Hank Jr. went through the same thing. He is delveloping his own sound. Keep up the good work Shooter!!! Just play because you love to play.

  • @rickyd0821 I agree. Too many people want Shooter to be Waylon and he's not. I'm sure his father would not be bothered by his sound.

  • @Songbirds1985 yeah, but he did a good job playing his father in 'walk the line'

  • @Songbirds1985 as the song goes he does it his way

  • He's doing his dad proud! Back in the 80's people just dumped all over Julian Lennon for being good and kinda sounding like his dad. I find that mentality SO tiresome.

    Julian had talent of his own, and so does Shooter, so don't shoot him down too.

  • bit of pink floyd in there.

  • doin his daddy proud hell yeah

  • I agree with the sentiment that he's doing it out of love for his father. As someone who's father is my best friend, mentor, and hero I can totaly relate to tryin to emulate them to show how much you look up and respect them...As for those who say he rides his father's coat tails just look at his own original material that is well out of the box and created a new genre just like his daddy did and is one of the true blue xxx players there is. He can play, sing, and write. Admit he is good!

  • Voice lessons good ... Filling his daddy's shoes ,,,not even close..

  • He may not be trying to copy his dad but he sure does resemble him, His dad would be proud!

  • He sounds alot like his dad, his dad would be proud!

  • @mswope78 I couldn't agree with you more, Shooter isn't trying to copy his daddys music, he is doing it as a tribute to Waylon and his fans.

  • Why should I sober up and listen to the wife YAK? Stay stoned and out the pain zone that the preachers set up for us. rawketman

  • That guitar shooter is playing kicks ass.

  • dnt down shooter cause he aint waylon! hes his own man! like how hank jr wasnt hank sr and hankIII aint hank jr n like how dale jr aint his dad! give these guys a brake they r tryn to make their own name in what thay do im tired of hearn ppl sayn "that "sonso" aint nothin like his dad!" well no shit it would be boring if they would be like thier dads!

  • @THEMRJAK9584 i agree 1000%

  • Scooter started out singing allright then went to hell ...But still like it! The lead dude really sucked i thought ....What was that lead solo all about ?

  • This is pure shit music, you guys should stop doing drugs

  • I do respect "EVERYONE"..... and, I do love Waylon and Jessie, BOTH.... however, Shooter just can't continue to be a singer unless he puts more into it!!!!! ..... It is like he just can't get into it..... does he really want to be a musician? He really sucks on his singing....... getting high is easy...... Shooter, get into it or get out of it!!!

    He really has talent... if he would just be himself and quit 'trying to fill the shoes' of his father or anyone else for that matter!!

    LOL!!

  • @MsMsmarilyn fuck you

  • @Meroniuk ... You definitely have a problem!!! I did not say nothing 'bad' about Shooter... all I said was he is not putting his all in singing this song!!!! He is a good singer, but this song sucks!!! ... and, I know he can do much better than this!!!

    So, you go "F_ck" Yourself!!!!!!!!!

  • I do respect "EVERYONE"..... and, I do love Waylon and Jessie, both......... however, Shooter just can not continue to be a singer unless he puts more into it!!!!! ..... It is like he just can't get into it..... does he really want to be a musician? He really sucks on his singing....... getting high is easy...... Shooter, get into it or get out of it!!!

    LOL!!

  • If this guy is playing a country bar ANYWHERE, he better be wearing a helmet with a facemask to stop all those beer bottles....He's riding the name only....no talent.

  • is that a confederate flag imprint on shooter's guitar?

  • @agnagara Yep. That it is. The good ol' flag. :)

  • Shooter is great what else can I say. If you havn't heard his albums go get one and enjoy!!!

  • Lmao. How can you not love this guy !?!

  • he has a big shoe to fill.and he does a great job.I am a fan of his for life.Just like Waylon he will blaze a new trail...record companies will want to step out of the main stream to sign this guy up.But Outlaw spirit lives on!how many of Willies' kids are playing?I give Shooter a thumbs up.He is gr8!

  • WTF is with u naysayers !?!? Just a couple a chumps, I expect. That boy has done his Father Proud. And , I will say he has done it with a commanding Voice! Just like Hank Wood do! I'm hopin and teachin, that my boy will do me proud like Shooter did for Waylon.

  • Sounds just Like his Daddy!!!

  • Comment removed

  • @lvpeckerwood granted i think III kicks the shit outta shooter as far as country and metal goes...shooter kicks the shit outta III as far as southern rock goes. they don't play the same genres so you can't really compare the two, but they're both amazing at what they do and two of the leaders in the last handful of real country(ish(shooter)) musicians left. only other two that comes to mind for me is eric church and gary allan.

  • @RyansMind check out the Texas/Red dirt music scene. Thats where most "real" country singers are these days. Country Music isn't dead, just in exile in Texas and Oklahoma

  • clean yur shit up, Waylon had a path to make, he was an outlaw & commanded the respect he had coming, yur tryin to be outlaw when you dont have to be, dont work like that, dont make a fool of yurself & Waylon anymore.

    But you did this cover w/honor--== Respect

  • wow thats wylons son?

  • nice video bobby kid.......peace

  • he sounds like his dad here! big time. the apple did not fall from the tree.

  • Hank 3 does the same he sings his granddaddy his daddy n others! Ive seen him n concert!

  • Major Contrast: Shooter Jennings in honoring his dad in his music and Hank 3 is rebelling against his dad.

  • @cactuscircle the hell are you talkin about man? There is a vid of hank 3 and his dad hangin out huntin turkey on youtube. stop arguin about shit and listen to the music.

  • AND LIKE HANK III SAYS PUT THE "DICK IN DIXIE AND THE CUNT COUNTRY"

  • NOPE HANK DIDNT DO IT WAYLONS WAY AND HE DEFFENTLY DO IT THE BULLSHIT POP COUNTRY WAY! TODAYS COUNTRY AINT COUNTRY REAL COUNTRY IS HANK WILLIAMS III AND THIS MAN AND THIERS DADDYS GENERATIONS AND BACK TO THE GREAT GREAT HANK WIILIAMS! AND ITS BULLSHIT THAT COUNTRY STATIONS WNT PLAY SHOOTER N HANK III CAUSE THEY CUSS! GOD-FUCKN-FORBID THAT IT AINT POLLITICALLY CORRECT! I SAY FUCK BEIN POLLITICALLY CORRECT AND PLAY THESE MENS MUSIC LIKE HOW THEY DID THEIR DADS! AMEN???????????????????

  • Waylon, Shooter, Hank , Hank Jr, Hank III, you can compare and what ever you want.

    But the bottom line is there making thier living playing music and we are not. I play a little music and i will say, Other than loving my family and riding my

    superglide, there ain't nothing better than playing my six string, Does anyone get it. By the Way , country radio sucks. Todays country pop can go back to where ever it came from.

  • @Pearl3161 how out all pop radio while were at it

  • Hank jr didnt follow his daddys music shooter aint following his daddys music you cant ride your dads coat tails hank jr said so shooter is cutting his own path just like hank sr, hank jr, and just like shooter

  • @rhd4doorboosted Dont forget about HANK III

  • Man, he sound just like his dad.

  • @CountryRockAndRoller ,shooter couldnt carry his daddys jock strap

  • @toteman4 YOU GOT THAT RIGHT !!!

  • @toteman4 obviously you never heard Waylon live...Shooter sounds just like him!

  • keepin a little of his dad with him! hell ya

  • @Stclaircad This is the first time iv'e heard shooter Jennings preform. He's like a chip off the old block. I agree with ya!!!

  • A great tribute, from the son of a country music ledgend.

  • There are worse things in life than being compared to Waylon Jennings. God bless you Shooter.

  • more like shitter jennings

  • @meinLiebsterFeind

    I think he turned out more like his mom. and Jesse Colter has a shitty voice and no talent too

  • @meinLiebsterFeind Who do you think you are? Comin here to talk shit about people you don't know anything about is quite dang stupid. If you really think so, firstly tell us why...

  • Great job Shooter. It's almost as if Waylon is right there with you.

  • rowdy

  • Shooter will have to battle the same ol crap ol' Bocephus had to deal with.Shooters not trying to be anything but an artist.His dad was simply amazing....and he cast's a huge shadow....however,so did Hank Williams...eventually the "better than your dad" and "not better than your dad" will fade.Who cares? THEY ALL ROCK!!!

  • He's Waylon's son, what can you say

  • alexmc71, thanks for everything you're doin' over there bro!!!! You are in all of our prayers. Merry Christmas!!!!

  • this was a great version i do like waylons better but then again i usually like the originals better i just feel sorry for guys like him he is a great artist but he will always be compared to his dads because his dad is one of the all time greats i hope people can just start seeing him as more than waylons son

  • nearly as good as waylon rip

  • I think shooter is an artist in his own right he so much like his dad I think he is brilliant

  • Nice Job Shooter...closed my eyes and you have your dads voice.

  • if anything can help keep the sanity level while here in iraq it is definitely some good ole fuckin outlaw country. Awesome Shooter

  • @alexmc71 This is amazing and youre right. THIS IS OUTLAW BITCHES...FUCK THE HATERS!

  • @alexmc71 You got that right!!! Good ol fuckin country is our roots and let it stay that way, Outlaw Country is the best way to describe it.

  • he is not trying to do it better then his dad,,, he is doing it For his dad!!!

  • Boo!

  • Go Shooter

  • amos moses break down!! what! I love it!

  • And Tom Sawyer! That was bad ass!

  • not even close shooter.

  • you think shooter gives a shit about stage presence? nice joke. rock on shooter.

  • Did you notice the rush tom sawyer riff the band played!!-Yes I salute you shooter!!-I heard about you but this is my first experience.!!!!!-A+++++

  • Leroy Powell tore the solo up on this one! love these guys! awesome!

  • good cover, but needs to work on his stage presence

  • No where near as good as Waylon........not even close

  • Comment removed

  • Fuck, he sounded just like his dad to me! I thought it was great and I LIVE IN NASHVILLE! I see great live music all the time...I don't know why you guys didn't like this.

  • Thanks for the post!

    Go Shooter Go!

  • it has nothing to do with being a replica we are all our own it was a fact ,if he was not shooter jennings who the fuck would waste there time and money recording that effort or lack of thats just the way it is. As for my DAD may he R.I.P. i was in the same trade he was and he told me i was the best one ever in his family at it so enjoy your dad there sport.

  • waylon played a tele, not a strat

  • good thing his dad was famous or he would be working construction somewhere whistling the tune. wat a waste of a classic

  • I like waylons version better also but thats no reason to talk this one down...especially with it being his own son...are you an exact replica of your dad..??..I doubt it...nobody could ever replace waylon but atleast he's not forgotten.

  • Awesome,but no one could play that stratocaster like Waylon ! I Think Willie even wrote a song about the way Waylon played that guitar.

  • I love this version, i like the driving sound it has

  • this really sucked. sorry shooter. try harder.

  • i like how he incorporated a lil bit of "workin man" from Rush around 3:45

    :D

  • its between 3:40-3:54 i think

  • oops i was wrong...it was Rush's "Tom Sawyer"

    xD

  • ROCK ON SHOOTER!!!!!!!!!111

  • Shooter rocks and I can't wait to see him in Knoxville in June.

  • this is awesome call me crazy but i prefer shooters voice over waylons

  • CRAZY

  • dont get me wrong i like shooter alot but im gonna have to say Crazy!

  • I agree with Dunbar, UR Crazy. Nothing like Ole Hoss!!!

  • Shooter tears it up if you like him don't watch the video asshole

  • he can sing his old mans song if he wants so SHUT THE FUCK UP if u feel like talking shit. shooter is the man

  • his dad would be so proud to see that his son has made it in the music biz, i would be proud if my sons did it this way

  • Hank jr.,Waylon and Ernest tubb sang a song called Why Dont You Leave Them Boys Alone And Let Them Sing Their Song. check it out.

  • Truer words never been spoke.

  • Jr Jams

  • As Hank, Jr once said in one of his old recordings...'There can never be another Hank Williams friends', this rings true with Shooter as well and I love him 'cuz' he has the courage to be himself. The big-shots in Nashville damn near drove 'ole Hank, Jr down a mountain. Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one!!!!

  • Dad would be proud

  • Are you sure Waylon did it this way?

  • hank jr. took a lot of crap because he done music his way. Waylon did'nt let anyone tell him how to do his music. Both are pretty much icons today. As they both sang on the song, Leave that boy alone and let him sing his song.

  • they are reffering to hank williams Sr.

  • piston you suck Im sure waylon likes that shooter is his own MAN

  • Easy to critique anything. Piston was right about one thing though. Shooter will never sing like his dad, but has the balls to sing like himself and that is what makes him great! No one will ever sing like Waylon and that's that! Waylon fought his way around jackasses that cut him down and kicked him out and won. GO SHOOTER!

  • god damn he fucked that song all up he is a discrace to his dad he will never sing like ol waylon

  • Piston,

    If you went to a club in 2008, and some young long haired red necks broke into AYSHDITW would you you jump up and say "You're a Disgrace to Ole Waylon"?, Or would you say "Hell yea, God bless you for keeping Waylon's spirit alive". I wouldn't care if it was Puff Daddy up there on stage, I would proclaim the ladder. Why not show the boy just a little respect? He chose his own path, and followed his Daddy's advice, "Don't try to be something you ain't".

  • well if you can do better then you do it, until then your just another big mouthed critic that can talk alot of shit and that's it. you may have the right to voice your opinion but trust me when I say no one gives a fuck about your opinion.

  • you right piston238 he is did fuck it up and anybody who thinks he didn't then get off his dick and don't look at him like his son look at him as the pile of shit he is doing a crappy cover of his dads song

  • jackass

  • you are right. he fucked this song up. and I bet his daddy would have beat his ass for this.

  • LMFAO at this comment! But I think you're probably right. I can just see Waylon up there, saying "Let me go down there one more time to teach that boy not to fuck with perfection!"

  • That really makes sense... geeze. Listen to the frigging words of the song... Waylon wrote it because he was being rejected for being different... Why can't Shooter do the same? Just because he has 'Jennings' in his name doesn't mean that he can't be his own person.

    Rant over- Rock on Shooter!!!

  • jackass

  • jackass numer uno

  • Shooter is just freaking awesome He did a damn good job on Waylons classic kick ass song.I'm so proud to be a Jennings.I love the comments and I'm sure Shooter and Waylon would as well.If your not in the fan club you should sign up.You can find it on his myspace.

  • Hell of a job to fill those shoes ... but he does OK!

  • hells bells

  • Jennings Legacy

  • I'm a 32 year old Waylon fan but never heard Shooter's music before. He doesn't have his Dad's classic voice, but the band really lays down that trademark kick-ass Waylon beat to the bone right here!

  • the first time I ever Shooter, I looked at my friend and said "that reminds me of Waylon, it just has the Waylon Jennings vibe to it." Then when the song was over on the radio they said it was Shooter!

  • keep on keepin on you'll be alright. love the band they just have to gain the composer, evytang gownbe aite!

  • I was there!! Awesome show!!! Thanks for sharing these videos!

  • we need a change!

    good job shooter.

  • God, I love Shooter

  • I wished he would put this song on his next album.

  • ARE YOU SURE HANK DONE IT THIS WAY
