“I lay my head on the wheel and the horn begins honking, the whole neighborhood knows that I’m home drunk again.”

No matter what song I recorded or sang, I did it my way.

Even they are competing with the same type of problem that I’m competing with.

I would have loved to had that break, but it never was offered to me, a job in that field, so naturally, I got lost on that other road.

I sing from my heart, I love country music and I love the people that respond to it.

Country music to me is heartfelt music that speaks to the common man. It is about real life stories with rather simple melodies that the average person can follow.

Before then, Britain was pessimistic and the role of government was largely managing Britain in decline.

Maybe some folks drink due to body chemistry and others due to their lazy characters. Maybe some have drinking problems, while others have problems enough to drink.

Country music should speak directly and simply about the highs and lows of life. Something that anyone can relate to.

Everybody knows in the business how I feel about country music. I’m an old traditionalist. Then they just call me an old man and stuck in my old ways, but with all the fans I’ve got out there,

I took my $100,000 and bought a new Corvette, a lot of cocaine, and spent the rest on foolishness.

You never see yourself as others do but I’ve always beeen proud to be part of country music and I hope that the format is proud of me.

Loneliness is lessened when you’re lonely by choice.

It might have taken an hour and a half or more for me to get to the liquor store, but get there I did.

If drinking don’t kill me, her memory will.

A key glistening in the ignition. I imagine the top speed for that old mower was five miles per hour.

There’s bad in everything. I dislike people misusing something that I love so much.
