You learn a lot though when you have kids, I'll tell you what. Did you know when a baby poops its diapers, you're not supposed to hit him with a rolled-up newspaper?

Sometimes you've gotta wreck the truck to get the insurance money to make the payment on the truck.

I was born and raised in Pawnee City, Nebraska. I lived right next to the sale barn and I raised pigs. My dad was a guidance counselor at Wymore High School. He was also a preacher and did farming as well. We leased out our crop land but had cattle and horses.

I pretty much live on my tour bus.I do well around 300 shows a year. A lot of times I will do two shows a night.

Living in a small town you couldn't go anywhere on a Saturday where a store had the game on. If you were downtown you heard the game. If you were at the gas station you heard the game. I remember I would be mowing the lawn and I would stop for the Nebraska game. I would have it cranking outside.

I'm so sick of gay this, gay that. I could care less. It ain't affecting my life at all.

I know I don't want to take the Lord's name in vain, and I don't want to drop any F-bombs.
