Makin's Of A Song Lyrics - Waylon Jennings

Before you pack your suitcase call your mama 

Up to now she's taught you all you need to know 

Just look at me as kinda like your daddy 

Teaching you the old rules of the road 

You won't be no superstar tomorrow 

You've got to take the time to pay your dues 

When you start to feel at home out on the highway 

You're damn sure qualified to sing the blues 

Always send a big guy for the money 

Don't give 'em no excuse to do you wrong 

Even when you lose you're still the winner 

At least you've got the makin's of a song
