We're a long, long way from home. Home's a long, long way from us.
Some guys they just give up living, others start dying little by little piece by piece, some guys come home from work and wash up, and go racing in the streets.
Fame, on its best day, is kind of like a friendly wave from a stranger by the side of the road. And when it's not so good, it's like a long walk home, all alone, with nobody in when you get there.
The Jersey Shore is the kind of place where the policeman has a little cottage that might have been in the family for years and many other people call home.
Tonight this fool's halfway to heaven and just a mile outta hell And I feel like I'm comin' home.
But it's a sad man my friend who's livin' in his own skin And can't stand the company. Every fool's got a reason to feelin' sorry for himself And turn his heart to stone. Tonight this fool's halfway to heaven and just a mile outta hell And I feel like I'm comin' home.

I thought I knew exactly how it would sound, but it surprised me, ... It was a nice moment driving back from the city, and it caught me by surprise again. There's no other record (of mine) quite like it ... I never made another one.
Making this album was creatively liberating because I have a love of all those different roots sounds. They can conjure up a world with just a few notes and a few words.
Tex was someone who opened his house completely and let us come in and turn it up as loud as we wanted when everybody else was trying to get us to turn it down,
