I think the melody is the first time I hear in a song and if I like the melody, then I'll pay closer attention to the lyrics.
You know, legends are people like Haggard and Jones and Wills and Sinatra. Those people are legends. I'm just a young buck out here trying to keep in that same circle with the rest of 'em.
I should have checked the price tag before I gave them my last name.
I got ex's all across the country and I owe everybody in town. I got bill collectors a callin' me up, and lawyers trying to track me down.
My weakness for beautiful women is my most expensive vice, I still believe in matrimony, but I can't afford another try.
Let me tell you a secret about a father's love,/A secret that my daddy said was just between us.”/He said, “Daddies don't just love their children every now and then./It's a love without end, amen, it's a love without end, amen.
Cause I'm carryin' your love with me From West Virginia down to Tennessee I'll be movin' with the good lord speed, carryin' your love with me It's my strength for holdin' on Every minute that I have to be gone I'll have everything I'll ever need Carryin' your love with me
In the beginning, I wanted to be successful. I wanted to make and have hit records. And I wanted everything that went along with it.
Even though I've been doing it for so long, I still feel fresh. Even when I walk out on stage, I still feel pretty much the same as I've always felt.
Sinatra, in my opinion, is possibly the greatest male singer of all time.
I'm not the hero who will always save the day, don't always wear a white hat, don't always know the way. I may not even be the dream you wanted to come true, but I'll always be the man in love with you.
On the Richter scale of love and romance, you've hit a twelve.
This is the kind of problem you want to have! Country radio has been great to me my whole career. I can't thank those folks enough.
I used to do a lot of interviews in the early '80s, when my career started, but it came to a point when I decided I didn't want to talk anymore, and people kind of understood that and left me alone.
