I've Got Some Good Saints Out There

I'm Proud Of Being A Mother, A Wife, A Daughter, And A Sister, And A Lover And A Friend We're All God's Children.

When I Decided To Be A Singer, My Mother Warned Me I'd Be Alone A Lot. Basically We All Are. Loneliness Comes With Life.

My Mother Was The First Singer I Had Contact With. She Sang Constantly To Us Around The House, In Church.

You Don't Have A Baby Based On That Publicity Madness. People Don't Live Like That. Especially Black People Who Were Raised In Families With Morals And Standards And Integrity.

You Get That Love From The People. It Lets Me Know That All The Madness I Go Through, All The Stuff That The Business Has To Offer With All Its Madness; It Makes It Worthwhile.
