You are the song of every bird, you are the poet's every word, every artist's picture, every writer's play.

I think country music is popular - has been popular and will always be popular because I think a lot of real people singing about a lot of real stuff about real people. And it's simple enough for people to understand it. And we kind of roll with the punches.

Music lives in me. Life is a song to me. I have the gift of rhyme, and I'm always trying to write and rhyme. Music is just natural everyday occurrence with me.

I always loved books. I don't remember learning to read, it was just something I always did. I was hungry for knowledge, I guess, and information; I was a curious kid. I still am.

I love to make things happen, I love to see things happen, I love to be a part of things that are happening.

Its hard to be a diamond in a rhinestone world.

I'm not intimidated by how people perceive me.
