Waylon Jennings - A Long Time Ago lyrics

I don't look the way the average cowboy singer looks

I'll admit i've taken things i never should of took

You can read a different story in a lot of different books

But even then you won't really know

How it was a long time ago

Women have been my trouble since i found out they weren't men

In spite of that i stopped and took a wife now and then

They built their fences high but they couldn't hold me in

I was born with a fire down below

And i learned to fly a long time ago

Don't ask me about the years i spent out in the rain

About the ones i spent in love or the ones i spent insane

Don't ask me who i gave my seat to on that plane

I think you already know

I told you that a long time ago

Me and ol' Willie,lordy we've been sold and bought

I guess you all heard about some kind of system that we fought

We ain't the only outlaws just the only ones they caught

They tried to run us off but Willie's slow

I quit running a long time ago
