Simplicity is the key to what I do.
I am a country boy and proud of it.
When your past calls, don't answer. It has nothing new to say.
No one can deny, this love I have inside, and I'll give it all to you, my endless love.
It's quite interesting that in my growing up I had several influences. We had gospel music on campus. R&B music was, of course, the community, and radio was country music. So I can kind of see where all the influences came from.
The music business was not safe, but it was FUN. It was like falling in love with a woman you know is bad for you, but you love every minute with her, anyway.
