Sometimes, at night you could hear the whole damn city crying.

By the time I was 19, my parents weren't very authoritative over my life.I didn't have any doubt about that - at that time about what I was going to do or where I was going. I was a musician. I was going to play. I had a band. We were going to make enough money to survive on.

Adult life is dealing with an enormous amount of questions that don't have answers. So I let the mystery settle into my music. I don't deny anything, I don't advocate anything, I just live with it.

With a chance to make it good somehow, hey, what else can we do now? Except roll down the window, and let the wind blow back your hair.

I guess there's just a meanness in this world

I got Mary pregnant and man that's all she wrote. And for my 19th birthday, I got a union card and a factory coat.

We struggled together, and sometimes, we struggled with one another... We took care of one another... In the end, we kept faith in each other.
