I have manic energy. What can be done about it? I don't know what to say sometimes. I'm professional in public, but I like to stay inside and be a hermit.

If you're afraid they might discover your redneck past, there are a hundred ways to cover your redneck past.

Now that I have found someone, I'm feeling more alone... than I ever have before.

Why would I want to sound like Joni Mitchell? I've got Joni Mitchell records, and they're great, and I couldn't possibly be that good.

Next door, there's an old man who lived to his nineties and one day passed away in his sleep. And his wife, she stayed for a couple of days and passed away. I'm sorry, I know that's a strange way to tell you that I know we belong.

My parents told me I must get married. I was seen as a failure if I didn't do it.

I've gotten to the point where I realize that I need to tell my truth in music and not walk around blabbing my mind.
