I was at that show, but I didn't remember that Willie stayed in the background on this song and didn't come out front to sing his part. For one reason or another, Waylon was the star of the Highwaymen shows. He was kind of the informal MC, talking directly to the audience about what was coming up.

I remember Waylon first sang that song without Willie and when he put it on the outlaw record he put Willie on it and it was another of Waylons great ideas ....

I still feel that both Willie and Kris are better songwriters, but that doesn't mean Waylon wasn't a good songwriter himself and I never claimed that he was. I'm European, so I'm not sure how well know Waylon was outside country music in America, but he wasn't as well known in Europe as Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard, Kris Krisofferson, and Hank Williams. Especially outside the country music lovers. I think the first time I got aquainted with Waylon was through the Highwaymen in the late 80s or early 90s. I already knew the others before that.
