Believe it or not, I want to keep growing my audience.

My fans get enough politics on TV every day. I want them to think for themselves. I don't want them to listen to me.

I'm what I am and I'm what I'm not. And I'm sure happy with what I've got. I live to love and laugh a lot. And that's all I need.

I have 120 employees on the road every day, and about 30 other employees off the road.

Social topics may hit too close to home for people, but then again, if you pull a heartstring, then that's what country music is. It's not just songs about getting drunk and leaving your girl.

When I was playing for tips in college, I felt a fire in my soul. I had the same principle of focus that I had learned playing football.

So yeah, it's nothing that I'm doing on purpose, I just think that the more records, the more songs that I write, the more records that I make, you're obviously going to fall into a specific style and thank God it's a style that people are into.
