Today, we're remembering country music icon Waylon Jennings, who was born in Littlefield, Texas, on this day in 1937.
On top of his wildly successful solo career, Waylon was a member of the country music supergroup The Highwaymen. He also played "The Balladeer" on "The Dukes of Hazzard," and performed the show's instantly recognizable theme song.
Waylon passed away on February 13, 2002, at the age of 64. He would have turned 89 today. Here's to you, Waylon. 🤎 🎵
