The Best of Waylon is a compilation album by Waylon Jennings, released on RCA Records in 1986, following the singer's departure from the label. It consists primarily of material from Jennings' last years at RCA, including "Lucille (You Won't Do Your Daddy's Will)" and "Never Could Toe the Mark". It is also notable for including two previously unreleased Jennings recordings: "I Don't Have Anymore Love Songs" and "Money Cannot Make the Man". The Best of Waylon failed to chart and was Jennings' final release on RCA.
