When I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry.

One day, I just decided I'm ready to go. So I went down with my guitar and sat on the front steps of Sam Phillips recording studio.

I worked there [on Pontiac] three weeks, got really sick of it, went back home and joined the Air Force.

Help me, Jesus. I know what I am.

I used to sing Bill Monroe songs. And I'd sing Dennis Day songs like songs that he sang on the Jack Benny show.

I wear the black for those who never read.
