I'm lucky my wife is a strong woman. She's one of the stronger people I've ever met. It's hard for me to be away, but I know my home life is fine because my wife is there.

I work hard to let my wife know how much I love her. I try to do that every day.

I don't think I get the respect as a singer. With this record, I wanted to bring respect to my band.

You gotta love and learn and learn to live.

I just wanted to go out and make a record that Ive always wanted to make since I was a kid.

One of the things that I'm dying to do is to sing the hook on a big rap song. No one's ever called me to do that.

I expect to make a career out of country music.
