I'm dating a girl who's pretty levelheaded. She's a nurse. She's a real, normal girl. Which is what I need because my life isn't normal.

My elementary school is still there [in Luttrell, Tennessee]. I drop by my high school. It's a small community. I say this every night before I do the song 'The Boys of Fall' in the show - I'm really happy about where I grew up and how I grew up.

I'll admit I'm a workaholic.

I think it is possible to be friends with employees, but there has to be a respect level where you're not taken advantage of, either.

I remember making up songs in my head.

Nothing positive at all in my life came from my marriage, I can tell you that.

When I try to brush the road dust off of me and untangle all the wires in my head, I'm usually surrounded by music on a boat. But that's not how I wake up every day.
