  • i would haved loved top be Waylons Bass player, its like surfing

  • I love the part at 1:46.... Where the backup singers just about got ahead of them selves!! Waylons kinda smiling through the rest of the song

  • Lol country and metal purists arguing about 1 song. That's soooo lame!!!!!!!!! James and Waylon's versions are pure bad asses! Live it up!

  • @jodysoldman--the bass is loud on a lot of Waylon songs. I hypothesize that it's because he was a bass player once upon a time.

    One hell of a song,

  • @jermziehe he couldnt play bass for shit. he admits it. his later music is just heavily bass driven not sure why. whitey morgan is the same way

  • They defiantly don't make them like this anymore .. good stuff

  • Ppl complaining about James hetefield doing this song are retarded. He did it as a tribute to Waylon. And imo that's showing respect for another artist.

  • Waylon\his voice/his ax/ and Ralph Mooney and the pedal steel trump all other music! If you don't agree, you probably have a towel on your head!!!!!!!

  • mom jeans have never been so awesome

  • i aint shure if i like this or the later version outlaw shit beter?

  • Comment removed

  • i use to think he said im the law and order waylon it should be

    haha i think waylon could pull it off

  • Wow, good stuff man

  • WAYLON = "This is what I think it should sound like!!" then making it happen. ANYBODY'S music the MAN sang he made it sound like what HE thought it should sound like. never forgotten hoss!

  • @thankful4HIM1 Waylon s friend Buddy Holly told Waylon,, Dont label your self..meaning his music.......Great advice. I keep thinking Waylon and Buddy are in Heaven just singing up a storm and God s enjoying every note.

  • i just gone watching james hetfields version on cmt, and thought i probably wont like this original..i LOVE it!

  • lmao....peckerwoodaustin...you GO SON!!!....this is my life story....cant believe it.....

  • If you ask my 6 year old daughter who the Man is, she'll tell you "Waylon is the Man"......

  • Love this!!!

  • @ dirtfan 91468 amen brother

  • sk1ppie  No,no,no,..no. James HetfieLd should NOT be doing Waylon songs.LOL!!

  • what ever happened to steel guitars?

  • @drunkenlout Pop country happened.

  • WHO THE HELL SAID KEITH URBAN!!!!! :(

  • Keith Urban should not even be talked about on this page,can't you just see how out of place he would be. This is real music from the gut and a man that would scare Keith to death.

  • this aint just country its outlaw country

  • going to get another twelve pack! too much fun!

  • yep your right

  • keith urban only wishes he could carry waylons guitar case around he doesnt even have enough talent to be able to do that.

  • James Hetfield does this song proud

  • Ol Hoss is tearing it up like only he can a true outlaw doing what he did best this is the reason he wasn't on that airplane in 58' god had bigger plans for this sharecropers son born in 37 RIP WJ BH BB RV (ah play it moon)

  • he may own it but to say waylon's playing keith's guitar is outright insulting. if he's such a "huge" waylon fan he shuld try harder to do that guitar justice & play better music. it ain't the guitar that makes the man, it's the man behind the guitar & waylon's the man with the talent to back that guitar up. short stuff pales in comparison. he bought a great man's guitar but it will NEVER be his.

  • waylon is true country

  • Oh cool Waylon playing Keith Urban's guitar!

  • @CSBluesman ya that must be keith urban's guitar.. because keith urban was about 2 when this came out..

  • @mcgyver93 It's his guitar now he got it for his birthday from his wife. I hadn't seen that many videos with this guitar in it recently. Waylon's family still owns the Telecaster with the white pick guard according to the article I read. In the 1990's Fender started making Waylon tribute guitar's that were based on these two guitars.

  • @CSBluesman are you serious?

  • @bushisbest1999 There was an article in a Guitar Aficionado magazine at least six months ago, it was about the black guard telecaster that Waylon used, he had two leather bound 50's Telecasters one with a black pick guard and the other more popular one with the white pick guard. Keith's wife, Nicole purchased the black guard in an auction for him as a surprise. Keith is a huge Waylon fan.

  • @CSBluesman No, Keith Urban ain't got the guts to play Waylon's guitar.

  • @SwampDaddy7 lol!

  • @CSBluesman you on crack man lol waylon could out play keith urban on his worst day lol

  • @CSBluesman WHAT!! No Keith Plays WAYLON'S witch is WRONG It should be in the Country Hall of Fame where it Belongs!!

  • I would have given anything to see The Outlaw perform live. I truly envy all who had the honor.

  • whoever was manning the sound board was most likely dating the Bass player, because the Bass is O-V-E-R-P-O-W-E-R-I-N-G

  • Warning - video will cause uncontrollable foot tapping. Love you WAYLON !!!!

  • if i'am not mistaken james hetfield was friends with waylon.

  • How many people came to watch this version because you just watched James Hetfield jam it and tear it up? I dont like country, but James did good cuz i dig this song now thanks to his cover and I have checked out more of waylon because of it..

  • @bigsofty1977 Ummm...nope...watched it for like the hundredth time cuz Waylon kicks ass. Het covered it? I didn't know that. Too bad Het is less than half the singer Waylon was.

  • @bigsofty1977 you dont have to be a country fan to like waylon thats why he is the best 

  • @bigsofty1977 I got here after watching Bo Chadley's version. He rocks!

  • Comment removed

  • @bigsofty1977 i dont care how u got here im just glad you showed up

    hoss is the boss!

  • @bigsofty1977 Who the hell is James Hetfield?

    I like the slower version better.

    J/K bout James. But seriously, who is he when standing next to waymore ;)

  • @bigsofty1977 james hetfield can suck waylons dick

  • @bigsofty1977 If you like this song, you should try "A long time ago" and "Are you sure hank done it this way".

  • Comment removed

  • Ah yes, the pedal steel. What would great music be without it?

  • the greatest song ever recorded

    547 like it and 2 ass holes don't what's not to like even if u don't like country rock

    it's like not liking kashmir or let it be

  • the greatest song ever recorded 

  • The chapter about this incident in his AUTOBIOGRAPHY is fantastic. He was in a studio doing backing tracks for a HANK JR song and he hears through his headphones the police shaking down the audio mixers so he throws his coke across the room and it slides under a curtain. The police start questioning him and he just acts cool and dumb, "I don't have any drugs, go ahead and search the place".

  • wayllon jennings is as country as it comes,if you dont like it "sorry about your damn luck"

  • one of the greatest outlaws of them all, fucking sweet

  • Oh man I am a huge metalhead (and I like some punk too) but let me tell you music like this is right up there at the top. Waylon Jennings was a real musician; a real artist. What a great song. Real country is nothing to be disrespected.

  • @1brettsnyder

    True punk, true country, true metal- more connected then people like to admit. Glad there's people whole like all 3!

  • Waylon...an AMERICAN original! There will never be another...RIP my brtother and thanks for all the great music you laid down.

  • @sb2244 Your right, there never will be another - but somebody out there IS keeping his music alive. Search Byron McKedy to see for yourself!

  • Sing it Waylon! I and country music miss you.

  • I would listen to this in my big old Caddy while doing 80 on the highway.

  • the one dislike is a fucking cop!

  • @iraclay Easy bro! 14 years on the job and I love this song! Hell, there isn't much by Waylon I don't like!

  • @iraclay make that 5 pigs

  • miss you waylon!!!

  • Please remove the disslike button, some idiot done slipped through! Waylon was a real Outlaw, never be another, Love him!!

  • @mskid68 you said it!! shaka

  • And if that aint country i'll kiss your as$!

  • Waymore forever loveit

  • The best ever doin his best ever along with his trusty sidekick Ralph (show em moon)Mooney

  • WAYLON FOREVER.

  • Steel guitar+Waylon equals Real Country, This is no pants down music here

    

  • Wish country music had some outlaws that could get out of hand

  • My thumbs was # 420 LOL I love it!

  • i disliked this, SO WHAT?!?!

    Really?

    Nah

  • I think the 1 dislike asshole needs a country beat down

  • country needs a good kick in the ass bring back real music not this spotlight shit

  • go out laws

  • This is real country music not like taylor swift or carrie underwood

  • Awesome music! Kinda weird: I look to the right of the screen and I see a cover version of this song by James Hetfield, the singer of Metallica. Interesting...

  • @Orangys280Z Waylon became friendly with metalica & Hetfield in particular.

  • @Orangys280Z

    They were friends

  • @pizzakingscott You're now the second or third person that told me that. I really didn't need to hear from you.

  • @Orangys280Z

    Cry me a river faggot. It's not my fault youtube's layout of their comment section is fucked up.

  • @pizzakingscott Blow me you dumb cunt. It's not my fault you're too fucking stupid to see that someone already replied to me. Obviously you are too stupid to see someone replied, so don't blame Youtube(though I agree the lay out could be better) especially when it shows my name in blue and a comment underneath it. Learn how to read fucking cunt.

  • That Waylon's sound....amazing!

    Only people who been trough a lot of s*it in their lives can truly dig Waylon.

    Candya*ses can't even scope the size of this man.

  • Who the hell disliked this??????

  • redneckn son of a gun

    

  • Way, way out of hand.

  • kick-n-ass!!!

  • R.I.P. Hoss!!!

  • Big big big Waylon!!!

  • @guitars691 not quite Waylon don't do back up he was doing some Hank Sr covers Hank Jr was there in studio playing diffrent

    interstruments when the doors came crashing in

  • @waylonfan01 Waylon did background vocals a couple of times I can think of I think it was THE NEW SOUTH for HANK JR and he did an album with DR HOOK.I would guess it was amazing having WAYLON JENNINGS who I think is the best ever in the studio.If you can find that HANK JR album it has great guitar WAYLON and TOY CALDWELL from MARSHALL TUCKER BAND playing on the tracks.TC

  • Most country music sucks!!!!.This does not...!!!!.This kicks ass,and Hetfield did it justice

  • This song is based on an actual event that happen to Waylon while he was recording background vocals for Hank Williams Jr.

  • Outlaw coumtry rocks!!!

  • james is good but not that good

  • i like hatfields version better.

    no insult fans, but i like metal more than country.

    though, this is good.

  • @Shpaggy You called him hatfield like that blues guy xD

  • @Shpaggy I like metal more than country too, but if you can't see that this version is better than Hetfields you are a musically limited in the brain.

  • @Shpaggy ur a pussy

  • dammit this is real country!

  • @MrArcadia34266 I agree totally!!!! bring back REAL country music - Im sick of this garbage todays country singers play now.

  • @MrArcadia34266 Yes I agree with you 100%

  • Man, this kind of music changed my life back in the 70's. I miss this guy!

  • Well, todays country is not real country.... It's a blend of pop and easy listening... not bad, if you like that sort of thing... but it is, in no way, real country. Reality is, real country is hard.... hard drinking, drugs, sex, fighting, etc. I miss real country... :(

  • @gwatson678 You nailed it that is very true I like real country music as well as drinking,drugs,sex,fighting,an­d if it was possible i would have already overdosed on Waylon's music it's the best around.TC

  • Today's country sucks! When George Jones, Merle, Willie and the rest are all gone we are fucked! RIP Waylon. Someone needs to kick the shit out of Nashville.

  • my advice to anyone who reads this: DO NOT buy an acer laptop. they are shit. I have been sitting here for over 10 minutes waiting for a 2 minute and 48 second video to load. When my acer finally goes, which should be soon, i shall put it to good use for target practice.

  • waylon is a modern hero in my eyes music lives forever and yes modern country is full of pussys

  • Goddammit Waylon ur good , the best ever doin his best ever God bless em

  • "Outlaw Bidness"

  • Though waylon passed away he will always be remembered in county music as s true legend, Waylon has the kind of voice that anyone could recognize and it never changed

  • Jason Boland and the Stragglers have been playing this song live pretty regularly here recently. Great song!!!!

  • I just bought the official Waylon documentary on amazon for 7 bucks brand new! I contains this entire show uncut as a bonus! What a Damn Deal!

  • Respond to this video... @copenkid actually waylon said bob wills was still the king of country .....but waylon is great...my dad always played his songs when i was little now i do ....him and hank are great

  • Good call for feedback.

    You do I'm sure know We are not idiot's.

    Nice sell but wrong excepting I answered.

    Keep waylon alive!!!!

  • Still one of my favs it wasn't singin thru your nose that got u busted by the man ,it was being the real deal hard living hard playing true outlaw .Go get em Waylon!!!

  • Waylon is the King of Country Music still! A great legend. Admired him for kicking drugs and moving on and staying true to his roots! And to Merle Haggard and the rest!

    Not like the flat belly, pretty boy. pop country singers today

  • Waylon is great i love his music

  • Let's clear this up right now. modern "country" aint freakin country! it's light rock with a steel guitar. if you want true modern Country Western music, listen to Hank Williams the Third.

  • SING IT WAYLON..SHOW THESE NEW COMER-WANNA -BE's HOW IT'S REALLY DONE!!! "GARTH WHO"? f#$%$ GARTH BROOKS!!!! WE LOVE AND MISS YOU DEARLY WAYLON!!!

  • Give em hell Waylon!!!!!

  • dont kid yourselves all music is dead country is pop rock and rock and roll is emo anything after 1990 not really worth listening to

  • new country music is shity no matter how u look at it county died in the late 1980's and it is a shame. but up till waylons death he was still putting out that classic waylon sound rip hoss
