The Highwaymen were an American supergroup of country music artists. The group consisted of Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, and Kris Kristofferson. Between 1985 and 1995, they recorded three major label albums as the Highwaymen: two on Columbia Records and one for Liberty Records. Their Columbia works produced three chart singles, including the number one "Highwayman" in 1985.

One other vocal artist appeared on a Highwaymen recording: Johnny Rodriguez, who provided Spanish vocal on "Deportee", a Woody Guthrie composition, from the album Highwayman. The four starred together in the 1986 film Stagecoach.

Glen Campbell, who recorded the song in 1978 as part of his 1979 album Highwayman, did not appear on any recording but temporarily joined the supergroup in a 1985 live performance at the first Farm Aid concert in Kristofferson's absence. Campbell was also a friend to each individual member, and played in early sessions with them.

In 1990, the original members of the 1950s-'60s folk group of the same name sued the Highwaymen over their use of the name, which was inspired by a Jimmy Webb ballad the country stars had recorded. The suit was dropped when all parties agreed that the folk group owned the name but that the earlier group would grant a nonexclusive, nontransferable license to the supergroup to use the name. The two groups shared the stage at a 1990 concert in Hollywood.
