Waylon Jennings – Best Friends of Mine
Monday, June 14th, 2010
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.
