You got to be pretty thin to be in the movies, or it helps. I would actually love to do it.

I got tired of playing other people's songs.

You couldnt get a job playing in a club unless you played so much Top 40 and so many Beatles songs. I just went into a sort of revolt.

I left home the day after I graduated from high school because I knew we weren't going to make any dough to pay the rent in music.

I said, other people can write songs, let's see if I can. So the first 400 or 500 wound up on the floor somewhere. Then I wrote one called Melissa.

One of these days I will be an old man in a rocking chair on a porch. Wouldn't it be nice to have my whole life there to read and kind of re-live it.
