Waylon Lyrics - Singles - Justin Haigh

Well I remember years ago 

Driving down an old dirt road 

Waylon on the radio 

Singing songs that I loved so 

A rambling man is what he was 

A Nashville rebel with a cause 

He knew how ladies loved outlaws 

This singer of sad songs 

He lived on the dark side of pain 

Drinking and dreaming all the way 

But being crazy kept him sane 

Now only memories remain 

The good old boys still have their fun 

Good hearted women still get it done 

The eagle sores from up above 

The wolf survives the man he runs 

Shooter carried the family name 

And this endangered species will remain 

You know Hank done it this way 

And American's never been the same 

I think I'll buy an old black rose 

And wear it proud upon my clothes 

To commemorate the life he chose 

This Nashville bum the whole world knows
