THE EAGLE
Brigitte London, and a few more I really enjoy, and listen to. But especially Brigitte with Waylon's Band back up---Thats the best there is to me at this time
Welcome to the Highway Angels: Street Team of Brigitte London. And NOW: Street Team of SPIRIT OF THE OUTLAWS!!!!
CHECK OUT THE BEST IN NEW OUTLAWS MUSIC NOW!
“Waylon's gone?â€
So ya think Waylon's gone and no longer a threat
To the music today and all its outlets
Seem mighty sure the “path†is all clear
“He's gone and forgotten; that Outlaws not hereâ€
Well that thinking's a bit wacky and surely a whim
Cause he's just round the corner; and wearing a grin
As the Youngin's do find their heels in the gap
Their setting a fire and moulding a new trap
For the next generation; looking for the right song
They know Waylon's legend and he's leading them along
Doing their own thing and following aspire
To return to the old Boy's sound and desire
Too much amiss from the “Pop†of today
Not enough of “ole Hank or Johnnie or “Way-_"
Paying their dues and working the road
From Texas to L A out there with their load
Just being new cowboys and strutting their stuff
Little by little the're leavin their dust
Singing their songs and strumming their strings
Proving to all they are doing their own thing
Brinking back “country†and good “ole down home style
Remembering “Who†used to go that extra mile
To give all he had to all who would listen
And put on a show that sparkled and glistened
Not with the hub-bub and “glitz' of today
But songs of real life and doing it his own way
Yes somewhere out there-- more “Sons†of the “Wayâ€
Will find their road to Nashville, and some even may stay
Carrying a “Song†of winners from life
They'll make for all time their mark-- even in strife
They'll sing out their songs with pride and good cheer
Knowing that Waylon paved the road and made it clear
There is only one “Way†to make Country zing
And thats for the boys who truly know how to sing
Who know how to make “ole Country come alive
The ones who have talent and know how to jive
Not given to “sellout†or bought off by greed
These cowboys of Waylon will still give him heed
So people will know that “Outlaw†is still around
Messing with minds and hearts so profound
He never left us as many had thought
He just took a backroad and traveled a lot
Keeping an eye on the new breed of man
Letting them know they can make it again
Doing whats right with their music and sound
Yes__that 'Ole Waylon is sure still around!
