I've Always Stood Up For Country Music.

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.

The Older You Are, I Think You Realize What You Enjoy And What You Don't Need, What Wears You Out And What's Important.

The Music Business Doesn't Take Up That Much Of My Time. I Probably Should Put A Little More Energy Into It.

A Lot Of Times When Songwriters Get Together And Write A Song... Somebody Will Come In With A Hook And A Lot Of Times They Come Out With Something That Sounds A Little Crafty.

Oklahoma's Always Been Good To Me.
