But I don't want to do no big tours or go out on the road.

I hitchhiked, took trucks 'n' trains - anything that would pick me up. I stopped in Memphis for about six months and they found me and come got me. Stayed about a month an' split again.

The one thing the blues don't get is the backing and pushing of TV and radio like a lot of this garbage you hears. They choke stuff down people's throat so they got no choice but to listen to it.

I have heartaches, I have blues. No matter what you got, the blues is there. 'Cause that's all I know - the blues. And I can sing the blues so deep until you can have this room full of money and I can give you the blues.

Groups are corporations now. They have pension plans. Musicians have saw the daylight.

It's never hard to sing the blues. Everyone in the world has the blues . . .

I don't do nothing I don't want to do.
