The sad thing is that you really have to go down an early Waylon rabbit hole to find these absolute GEMS!
That is true. I have been collecting Waylon's music since the early 70's.
Melody is house of the rising sun
Country Music is missing the dark story songs. Like shooter jennings says all country music is now is a “dirt road free for all”
I agree.
Hauntingly beautiful. I've listened to Waylon for many, many years, but I'll never get tired of his songs - he's simply one of the best singers ever
The greatest IMHO.
@@eaglewatcher290 If I had to pick one (and only one), my all time favorite would have to be Johnny Paycheck, but Waylon Jennings is definitely up there near the top too.
@@OliverHviid I would agree Johnny is right up there too.
I remember being 13 year’s old, my Dad would play it constantly, I never understood the song back then.
This guy? Give me a break….absolute brilliance.
A#m C# D# F#
House of the Rising Sun is Am C D F so it sounds familiar
What??
@@eaglewatcher290 Chords. You know, music?
Yeah, I don't know music but this obviously is very similar to The Animal's "The House of the Rising Sun."
By who? "The House of the Rising Sun" is a traditional folk song, sometimes called "Rising Sun Blues". It tells of a person's life gone wrong in the city of New Orleans. Many versions also urge a sibling or parents and children to avoid the same fate. The most successful commercial version, recorded in 1964 by the British rock band The Animals, was a number one hit on the UK Singles Chart and in the US and Canada.[1] As a traditional folk song recorded by an electric rock band, it has been described as the "first folk rock hit".[2][3]
The song was first collected in Appalachia in the 1930s, but probably has its roots in traditional English folk song. It is listed as number 6393 in the Roud Folk Song Index.
Look up older versions and hear different takes of the song.
Listen to Frigid Pinks' metal version.
I've been a fan since the 1960's and this is one reason why. He was a hell of a singer. You should also check out his his recording "MacArthur Park Revisited." It is one of his greatest performances ever --- much better than his original (even though that original won him a grammy in 1969.)

Haunting and Beautiful….. classic , thx for the share👍
You are very welcome.
Why is this song not available to purchase on itunes?!
this song went to #37 on the country charts in 1969!!!
Saw Waylon and Emmy Lou together. The best concert ever!
The melody sounds like "The House of the Rising Sun," and the backing vocals are are straight from the Ennio Morricone Spaghetti western music that was popular at the time.
Delia woe-oo... Delia
Where have you been so long
Ever'body's talking about Delia
They say she's done me wrong
They took my Delia to the graveyard
Took her in a long black hearse
If I hadn't shot my poor Delia
I believe she'd a got me first
Delia's gone
Went down to the graveyard
To look at my Delia's face
I said Delia girl how I loved you
I wish I could take your place
Jailer...er.. er oh...oh..oh jailer
Tell me how can I sleep
When all.. around my bedside
I hear little Delia's feet
Delia's gone
Some gave Delia a dollar
Some gave her two or three
But I didn't give Delia a penny
'cause she belonged to me
Delia's gone Delia's gone
This is new for me and also excellent.
What a great musical instrument his voice
Never heard this version till 2021! Well... at least thats something good.
It's a good one.
Sounds like House of the Rising Sun.
I agree.
Thanks for the Sunday morning treat Ron.
You are very welcome Greg.
One of the most underrated musicians!! For me his voice is far much better than that from Elvis Presley... and Presley is one of the most overrated musicians ever...
I agree.
