There's no such thing as a teenager that listens to a single word their father says.

I've got a 27-inch waist. Before, I was stupid smaller. Finding clothes in the South was impossible.

There's a certain urgency that comes from the records of the early 60s before overdubbing and multitracking came into play.

I always watched movies and rooted for the bad guys, you know? I've always been that kind of guy. I still hold some respect for criminals that are good at their jobs.

I discovered the same thing Gram Parsons did, that soul music and country music are practically identical. Based off of the same chord structures, and the songs are of heartache and loss. The main connection is they both came up in church.

On the road, I weigh 168. At home, ten more.

All my records have been written to be records, rather than writing a group of songs and seeing if they fit together.
