I listen to Mark Chestnutt and think he's a great singer - and he really does good material.

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.

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

I ain't rich, but Lord I'm free. Amarillo by morning, Amarillo is where I'll be.

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.

I get asked all the time, "What is a George Strait song?" I know it when I hear it. I don't seek a specific tempo or lyric or melody. It just has to make sense. Maybe it is natural because I was given the gift to sing.

I'm not out there trying to change the world. I'm just out there trying to sing country music the best way I can.
