song men working-man
I've had several working-man songs that I like.
littles energy should
The music business doesn't take up that much of my time. I probably should put a little more energy into it.
home years time-away
If you just do 50 to 60 shows a year, it's not that much time away from home.
song writing people
I like to write sad songs. They're much easier to write and you get a lot more emotion into them. But people don't want to hear them as much. And radio definitely doesn't; they want that positive, uptempo thing.
stars crazy thinking
You think a lot of people get to be big stars and get a little crazy, but most of the ones I've ever met have always been surprisingly normal, and I've enjoyed that.
grandma years two
I didn't realize until I was older what a huge music fan my daddy really was, and actually that my grandma played banjo at one time, and I didn't even know that until a year or two ago.
song men perfect
He's written some great songs. I thought that "Blues Man" was a perfect song for me to do as a tribute.
mean thinking voice
I mean, my voice has gotten a little deeper sounding as I've gotten older, I think. I noticed that.
thinking trying fans
I always try to make the music that I like and think my fans will like.
song singing half
Probably some of the songs I never even really listened to the lyrics. Half of them I'd hear off the radio and was probably singing the wrong words and didn't even know it.
song thinking mixtures
I think I've always approached making albums pretty much the same way. I'm just looking for a mixture of songs and topics that aren't the same thing over and over.
real love-you cooking
I love your cooking, honey, but sometimes I need some real food.
dream school bigs
When I was in high school, I don't know that I really had big dreams.
children work hero
There's no hall of fame for that working class hero, no statue carved out of stone. And his greatest reward is the love of a woman and his children.
