The almighty dollar and the lust for world wide fame, slowly killed tradition, and for that someone should hang.

You know, traditional country music is something that's going to be around forever.

I spend most of hunting season at the ranch. We all love to hunt whitetails, and we have a pretty good supply in South Texas. I also love to hunt elk in Arizona, mule deer in Utah, and I've been to Canada to hunt caribou.

Sinatra, in my opinion, is possibly the greatest male singer of all time.

I always enjoy it when I walk on stage. There were some times when I was working so much in the '80s, and I felt really burnt-out. But I'd be up there singing and not be 10,000 million miles away, you know, just opening my mouth and the words coming out.

You know, legends are people like Haggard and Jones and Wills and Sinatra. Those people are legends. I'm just a young buck out here trying to keep in that same circle with the rest of 'em.

On the Richter scale of love and romance, you've hit a twelve.
