Mother would come and pick me up at work and take me wherever I could get a job. Mother didn't trust anybody with me. Usually we'd get home at 3 in the morning.

I don''t wanna be rich, just live good.

You might say it was my return to the living that launched me as a singer. I was placed in an oxygen tent, and the doctors brought me back to life.

I wish to be put away in a western dress I designed, with my daughter's little gold cross necklace and my son's small white testament in my hands, and my wedding band on.

I think I've found out who I am and what we've been looking for. We don't have to search for my identity anymore. This is it-we're doing it!

Im not making up my mind about anything right now. Things are happening so quickly for me, and Im still in the thinking stage.

It seems that every time I stick my neck out, I get my foot into something else.
