I expect my life to end pretty soon. You know, I'm 71 years old. I have great faith, though. I have unshakable faith.

Burn my Flag and I will shoot you........but I'll shoot you with a lot of love, like a good American

When I record somebody else's song, I have to make it my own or it doesn't feel right. I'll say to myself, I wrote this and he doesn't know it!

I keep my eyes wide open all the time.

You've got a song you're singing from your gut, you want that audience to feel it in their gut. And you've got to make them think that you're one of them sitting out there with them too. They've got to be able to relate to what you're doing.

When I was a baby, my mama told me son, always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns. But I shot a man in Reno.
