I'm not the kind of man that holds out on a need for nothing. I'm as lonely as any man around, I just don't like to pick 'em up and lay 'em down.

If we were to sit and discuss abortion and legalizing marijuana and gay marriage and all those things, you'd be surprised where you'd see me on the side of some of that stuff. People get their opinions - as soon as you're a real flag-waving patriot, then all of a sudden you're a conservative.

I'm as strong, strong as I can be, but ooh ooh ooh, baby you leave me weak.

Writing songs and looking for ideas is like blinking my eyes. It's an involuntary muscle. I do it without thought.

Don't apologize for being patriotic. Support the troops

When I go in and vote, I vote for the person I think will get the job done.I don't vote right-left.

I don't give a bleep if gays get married. That's just a contract, and that's between them and God. That ain't up to me to play God on that.
