Waylon Jennings - Best Friends of Mine

This is a homemade video of Waylon singing Best Friends of Mine from his Closing in on the Fire album. I hope y'all like it..

Lyrics:

I guess Phoenix, Hardtimes and hardwork
Helped shape the mold.
We pushed and old Chrysler a
Hellava lot farther than we rode.
I remember when our biggest dream
Was breakin' the bank on some pinball machine
Well ol' Jim hit the jackpot in Idaho Falls Idaho.

Chorus:
After all of this time, he's still a best friend of mine, one of a kind

In Missoula Montana out under that un-ending sky
There in a valley it would make any Southern Boy smile.
With the stars and the bars and a breeze
Hank and his lady are taking it easy
Deep in the west, you might say colonial style.

He was a legend, I was a redneck and green
The first to believe, he took me under his wing
Now the edges are still pretty rough
But when Im flooggin' that guitar and struttin' my stuff
Old Buddy, Old Friend, you were the start of a dream

All laughin and jokin aside
I can honestly say and say it with pride
Somewhere, sometime in this life of mine
I must have done something all right.
