There are two kinds of people, there's those who like Johnny Cash, and those that will.

Nothing will prepare you for singing the truth like about 35 years in the music business, financial troubles and a couple trips to jail, ... It will get you really humble and really truthful, and gets you ready to sing out about who and what saved you.

There are two kinds of people, there's those who like Johnny Cash, and those that will.

From watching Lester (Flatt), I learned that it's important to be loyal to the people who made you and bought your music. He called me up to the front of the (tour) bus on the very first trip I went on with him. Lester pointed out two elderly people who were walking towards the but. He said, 'Those two people have been coming to see me since the mid 40's. That's what a country fan is all about.'

It's the hillbilly rock, beat it with a drum. Playin' them guitars like shootin from a gun. Keepin' up the rhythm, steady as a clock. Doin' a little thing called the hillbilly rock.

There's the chart -- and there's the heart. And it's great when they both line up. But you better follow your heart, 'cause that's where it's at.

The truth of country music, the real stuff, will prevail ..... generation after generation.
