Don't DO this to me Waylon.....

Waylon Jennings "The Boxer"

Waylon Jennings can take any song and make it seem like he wrote it about himself. He could take a song from the "Mary Poppins" soundtrack and make it seem like its about drinking. Here, Waylon covers Simon and Garfunkel's "The Boxer". He sings the song like its a thousand years old, and squeezes more emotion out of it than those two balding hippies ever could. I'll admit i've never been a huge fan of Simon & Garfunkel. I'd just rather hear a fat old cowboy sing about picking up whores on seventh avenue than those two guys. It just makes more sense.


Even if you don't like country music, you'll probably like this. I wouldn't consider it a country song even, but rather a sad song being sung by a guy who's done a lotta livin'. And if you don't like it, Waylon will come to your house and bust you over the head with a bottle of Lone Star. Than he'll apologize and take you out drinking. That's just the kind of guy he is.
