Say a prayer for the pretender, who started out so young and strong only to surrender.

So what I do, more than play any instrument - I mean, I love to play - but more than that, I write songs. Songs that are about living, about what it's like to be going through all the things that people go through in life.

Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels. Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields.

It was a great time to be born, because I got to have my own publishing company right from the beginning, so I made more money than somebody would have doing what I did ten or fifteen years before.

When I really started liking music was when I could play some of it myself, and after a couple of years of playing folk music, I kinda rediscovered those hits that were on the radio all the time when I was a kid.

When you turn out the light, I've got to hand it to me. Looks like it's you and me again tonight Rosie.

No matter how close to yours another's steps have grown, in the end there is one dance you'll do alone.
