I think 'Beyond the Blue Neon' is the best I've ever done.

I got ex's all across the country and I owe everybody in town. I got bill collectors a callin' me up, and lawyers trying to track me down.

You've got to keep the stage world and your real world separated or you're headed for trouble.

I just continue to look for different material, great material, as good as I can find, and try to go in there and do as good a job as I can do in making it a record. That's all you can expect. That's all that you can do.

I want to reach the point where people hear my name and immediately think of real country music.

Even though I've been doing it for so long, I still feel fresh. Even when I walk out on stage, I still feel pretty much the same as I've always felt.

I'm not here for a long time. I'm here for a short time
