Could it be the girls and boys are trying to be heard above your noise?

It just took the right time. I was fully confident that I was going to see Sam Phillips and to record for him that when I called him, I thought, I'm going to get on Sun Records. So I called him and he turned me down flat. Then two weeks later, I got turned down again. He told me over the phone that he couldn't sell gospel music so - as it was independent, not a lot of money.

I say I'm not a singer, so that means I can't sing. But - doesn't it?

I wear black because I'm comfortable in it. But then in the summertime when it's hot I'm comfortable in light blue.

I learn from my mistakes. It’s a very painful way to learn, but without pain, the old saying is, there’s no gain.

Loneliness is emptiness, but happiness is you.

It was kind of a prodding myself to play I Walk The Line straight.
