Sometimes I do a Dylan song and it seems to fit me so right that I figure maybe I wrote it. Dylan didn’t always do it for me as a singer, not in the early days, but then I started listening to the lyrics. That sold me.

Music is religion for me. There'll be music in the hereafter, too.

Every city in the world always has a gang, a street gang, or the so-called outcasts.

You have to be a freak in order to be different.

To be with the others, you have to have your hair short and wear ties. So we're trying to make a third world happen, you know what I mean?

Even Castles made of sand, fall into the sea, eventually.

The reflection of the world is blues, that's where that part of the music is at. Then you got this other kind of music that's tryin' to come around.
