It's a good question, because to be believable is the only way that you could be successful.

There's no way to be able to tell what it's like to be a country singer until you're walking in the shoes.

We live on a 500-acre ranch, beautiful ranch.

You can run for cover, you can run for help. You can run to your lover, but you can't ever run from yourself.

I have always been the life of the party. When I got to the point where I wasn't anymore, I knew something was wrong. I didn't know what it was. Once you figure it out, you can start to fix the problem. It's a day-to-day struggle.

We've got great fans that rock and roll won't have, because you can have a one-hit record and country music used to, not so much anymore and you have a fan forever.

At one point, I didn't get out of bed for, I think, three months, and I went down to the bottom of the hill one day and I had to call somebody to get me to come back up - come pick me up because I couldn't physically walk up the hill.
