Music Is About The Only Thing Left

I Heard Someone Say That All Black People Got Rhythm. Bullshit.

The Words To Country Songs Are Very Earthy Like The Blues. They're Not As Dressed Up And The People Are Very Honest And Say, 'look, I Miss You Darlin', So I Went Out And Got Drunk In This Bar.' That's The Way You Say It. Where In Tin Pan Alley They Would Say, 'oh I Missed You Darling, So I Went To This Restaurant And I Sat Down And Had A Dinner For One.' That's Cleaned Up Now, You See? But Country And Blues Tells It Like It Is.

Dreams, If They're Any Good, Are Always A Little Bit Crazy.

Just Because You Can't See Anything , Doesn't Mean You Should Shut Your Eyes.

When I Was Going Blind, I Didn't Turn To God. It Didn't Seem To Me Then - And It Doesn't Seem To Me Now - That Those Items Were His Concern. Early On, I Figured I Better Begin To Learn How To Count On Myself, Instead Of Counting On Supernatural Forces.
