An Oklahoma girl like me wouldn't even know how to be a diva. I'm just a person who has a cool job. I love to be at home. I rarely go to clubs... and I always wear underwear! I just know I'd fall down, and that's not for everyone to see.
Sometimes a girl's gotta have some chocolate!
And make sure you tell daddy That I'm still his little girl Yeah I still feel like I'm where I'm supposed to be But don't forget to remember me
You can hold any girl that you like Fall in love when its easy at night But you wake up wondering why She aint ever something better When youre lost and youve run out of road Find what I already know In the end close is all there is But you wont find this
So many people always try to help me carry my luggage and help me do things I can do myself. If I can do it myself, I'm going to do it myself. I'm not going to let other people do it for me, and I think that's a big part of where I came from. I'm not a real prissy girl.
I called my mom, and I was so excited. I was telling her, 'I'm going to be on the Grand Ole Opry! This is crazy!' And she told me, 'Watch out for Jimmy Dickens, because he likes the pretty girls.
It's such a sacred place. So many people have played there.
Everybody seems to have their arms wide open to me, so that's been great.
I'm not preaching. It's just a beautiful song I figured a lot of people could relate to whether they believe in God or not. Everybody has had a time in their life when they needed help with something.
As a proud Oklahoman, I'm honored to receive this recognition from my home state and hometown community,
I can't have a dog or cat on tour because of allergic Idols, but when this is over, I'm having an animal in my arms.
It's especially going to be great to get out there and perform in front of big crowds without having to worry about the competition aspect of it.
It's a very happy thing that we're doing to help people.
It's been absolutely fabulous. I've totally gotten to do everything I ever wanted and then some, and I'm just trying to stay there as long as I can.
