I Wear The Black For Those Who

I Was Wearing Black Clothes Almost From The Beginning. I Feel Comfortable In Black. I Felt Like Black Looked Good Onstage, That It Was Attractive, So I Started Wearing It All The Time.

I Wear Black For Those Who Never Read Or Listen To The Words That Jesus Said, About The Road To Happiness, Through Love And Charity.

I Recently Found Myself Going Through A Period Of Uncertainty About My Future As A Performer, My Status As A Personality, The Believability Of My Christian Witness And The Knowledge Of God's Will In My Life. I Felt A Force Bigger Than Myself Saying, 'lay Back. Take It Easy. Study Hard. Read Your Bible. Think, Write And Keep Your Mouth Shut For Awhile.'

My Way Of Communicating With God As A Boy (and Often Even Now) Was Through The Lyrics Of A Song. . . . So I Didn't Have The Problem Some People Do Who Say, "i Don't Know How To Pray." I Used The Songs To Communicate With God. . . . To Me, Songs Were The Telephone To Heaven, And I Tied Up The Line Quite A Bit.

We'll All Be Equal Under The Grass, And God's Got A Heaven For Country Trash.
