Waylon Jennings
"I've Always Been Crazy"
and "Revelation"
Somewhere in Vietnam a 19-year-old soldier walked out of a barroom And he said I must be seeing things that bourbon hit me like a baseball bat
In Belfast Ireland a little lady dropped her shovel in her garden She raced across the yard and ask her neighbor Mrs Clancy what was that
In Memphis Tennessee a teacher raised the window closest the river And the children in her classroom swore they'd heard a choir singing down the street
In Washington DC a private secretary's lips began to quiver And the President just put aside his papers and rose quickly to his feet
I lay in a cheap motel in the arms of someone else's woman When a loud explosion rocked the room and turned the morning into night
I jumped out of bed and ran into the street with hardly any clothes on As the sky lit up my heart stood still and I could feel my face was turnin' white
All at once the clouds rolled back and there stood Jesus Christ in all his glory And I realized the saddest eyes I'd ever seen were lookin' straight at me
I guess I was awakened by the penetrating sounds of my own screamin' And it didn't take me long to stumble out of bed and fall down on my knees
As tears rolled down my face I cried dear God I'm thankful I was only dreamin' And if I never go to hell Lord it'll be because you scared it out of me

Cool story. Cool song. "Old Shep" sounds like a waltz.

Back in the 90s, my little country band had a chance to open for this guy on 3 different occasions. He was a nice guy, very humble, a good songwriter, and could sing/play just about anything. I know that when we opened for them at the Palomino in Charlotte, during sound check....he and his band played/sang Africa by Toto......and it was awesome. I really don't understand why he didn't do better than he did during his career. This particular tune was one of my favorites of his. I liked the lyrics, the melody, and I really loved playing the guitar solo that the Nashville guys did on the recording. It was a fun time and a honor to be sharing the stage with someone of his quality.
