Waylon Jennings (1937-2002) fue un reputado músico de country. Comenzó su carrera a finales de los 50 en la banda de acompañamiento de Buddy Holly (The Crickets).
Fue uno de los máximos exponentes -junto a su amigo Willie Nelson- del movimiento outlaw, que dentro del género trataba de plantar cara al mainstream popero y mercantilista que se hacía a finales de los 70 en Nashville.
Los 70 fueron su época dorada, con éxitos como "You asked me too" o "Luckemback, Texas".

performed by Waylon Jennings.
Verse 1: DE Down the road a ways i've heard said a new day's coming on AD Where the women folks are friendly and the law leaves you alone E I'll believe it when i see it and i haven't seen it yet BE Don't mind me just keep on talking i'm just looking for my hat
Chorus 1: AE There ain't no God in Mexico,ain't no way to understand A How that border crossing feeling makes afool out of a man E If i'd never felt the sunshine then i would not curse the rain A If my feet could fit a railroad track,i guess i'd been a train
Verse 2: DE Me and Louise Higgins-Botham used to chase across the yard AD Back in 1947 that's when more than times were hard E Well pity me i didn't find the line in time like a fool BE In front of God and everybody i politely blew my cool
Chorus 2: AE Ain't no God in Mexico,ain't no comfort in the king A When you're down in Madamoris getting busted by the man E If i'd never felt the sunshine,Hell i would not curse the rain A If i hadn't been railroaded well i guess i'd been a train
