I've copyrighted 3,000 songs.

There's a scripture that says, 'A merry heart doeth good like medicine.' I think that's true, too.

I know the struggles of poor people, and have always kept that with me.

I listen to my old records and I think, 'How did I ever get on the radio?'

I'm gonna be making records anyway, even if I had to sell 'em out of the trunk of my car. I'm that kind of musician and singer.

I do have a few little tattoos, but they were mostly done to cover scars because I'm so fair.

I have surrounded myself with very smart people.
