I Grew A Love For Helpless, Defenseless

My Uncle Gave Me A Trumpet, But I Loved The Louis Armstrong Sound And The Harry James Sound And I Played By Ear And I Played Always Soulful Or Very Direct From The Gut.

My Aunt Played The Piano And I Used To Sit And Listen To It.

I Used To Be A Mean Maniac. Someone Once Threw A Firecracker At A Show And I Jumped Off The Side Of The Stage And Whacked 'em On The Side Of The Head.

You Know, Music Is Sex. It's A Sensual Driving Mode That Affects People If It's Played A Certain Way.

As A Little Kid I Had A Girlfriend, And Her Boyfriend Used To Beat Me Up, So Then I Used To Sing These Songs, And That's What It's All About. Country Music Is All About Your Heart And Your People And Things Like That.
