And I've been walking 'round with memories way too long.

We got CEOs making 200 times the worker's pay, but they'll fight like hell against raising the minimum wage.

I was mainly influenced by the Carter Family, Jimmie Rodgers, Loretta Lynn, Merle Haggard, and others like Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash.

If something bothers me, it bothers me for a long time until I find a way to work it out. Music provided me with a means of working things out.

My guitar is really tempermental. I don't give up on it though, I'm close to my guitar!

This is how it has been since time began: If you want to make something really worthwhile and true, then you have to suffer for it.

I've always been aware of having feelings that were pretty intense at times. I imagine most people have had that, or they wouldn't be human.
