I started recording because I was always complaining about the records that I was getting of my songs. At least if I did them and messed them up, I wouldn't have anyone else to blame.

College men from L.S.U., went in dumb, come out dumb, too.

I've worked with a band, and it's nice to have someone to travel around with, but I didn't like it as well on stage.

We don't know our ass from a hole in the ground.

I once had dinner with Madonna and I wasn't nervous but within about a minute I found myself talking about underwear.

I like the performing. And interviews, even. And the stuff that's not sitting in a room by yourself with empty paper. But I never loved writing, to tell you the truth.

"Rednecks" always made me nervous to play, but I'm glad I wrote it and I continue to play it. It's just that the language is so rough.
