(Waylon Jennings)
I sat at a bar having a beer
Trying to hold down the stool
When a stranger walked in stood there beside me
And plopped down there like a fool.
He started drinking then he started talking
About things that were wrong in his life
The more that I heard the more I believed
The thing that was wrong was his wife.
You talk about beauty when we first met
She was all a man could desire
Talk about love one night with her
Would set your very soul on fire.
But loves little flame is out of control
About three feet high from behind
Ever since we've been married well, I've come to believe
That love's for the dumb and the blind.
'Cause you talk about ugly when she gets mad
She goes from Jekill to Hyde
She grits her teeth and her eyes roll back
And pivot from side to side.
She completely rewrites the whole English language
Descriptive four lettered and loud
Now I can't out think her but I can sure out drink her
And that's what I'm doing here now.
I've spent seven years with the wrong woman
Seven and going on eight
She spent seven years naggin' and eatin'
I'm overwrought and she's overweight.
If I try leavin' she has me arrested
And takes her own sweet time gettin' me out
If she ain't number one she's in the top two
Of things that I could live without.
Men commit murder and all kinds of mayhem
In a few years they're back on the streets
Highway robbery and white collar crime
And they laugh at the system they beat.
Sometimes I'm tempted sometimes I'm ashamed
Of the things that the law will allow
I could have killed her when I first met her
And I'd have been out of jail by now.
I could have killed her when we first met
And I've have been out of jail by now...
Waylon Arnold Jennings (1937-2002) was a legendary American singer and guitarist, considered one of the pioneers of the outlaw country movement. Born in Texas, Jennings began his career in the 1950s as a supporting musician for various country artists. In 1964 he achieved his first success with "Only Daddy That'll Walk the Line". Throughout the 1970s, Jennings emerged as a key figure in outlaw country, a movement that rejected the conventions of the Nashville Sound and embraced a more rock-and-roll and independent style. He collaborated with artists like Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, and Johnny Cash, forming the supergroup known as "The Highwaymen". His most important albums include "Honky Tonk Heroes", "Lonesome, On'ry and Mean" and "Wanted! The Outlaws". Among his most representative songs are "Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys", "Luckenbach, Texas (Back to the Basics of Love)" and "Good Hearted Woman". Jennings was an influential artist who left an indelible mark on the history of country music.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
