My Doctor Tells Me I Should Start

Sometimes There Is A 36-piece Orchestra Going Off In My Stomach.

When I Left Nashville I Went To Texas Because That's Where I Came From, And Because I Was Playing In Texas A Lot In Different Places. And I Saw Hippies And Rednecks Drinking Beer Together And Smoking Dope Together And Having A Good Time Together And I Knew It Was Possible To Get All Groups Of People Together - Long Hair, Short Hair, No Hair - And Music Would Bring Them Together.

In Church I Was Told That If I So Much As Smoked A Cigarette Or Tasted Alcohol, I’d Be Damned In Hell For All Eternity... It Didn’t Take Long For Me To Start Thinking That Sounded All Wrong... I Didn’t Cotton To The Idea That Your Religion Should Be Flaunted To Other People. Your Religion Is For You, And Is Best Kept Close To Your Heart.

I Think It Is Just Terrible And Disgusting How Everyone Has Treated Lance Armstrong, Especially After What He Achieved Winning Seven Tour De France Races While On Drugs......when I Was On Drugs I Couldn't Even Find My Bike.

I Had Gotten Up To Two, Maybe Three, Packs (of Cigarettes) A Day. And My Lungs Were Bothering Me And I'd Had Pneumonia Two Or Three Times. And I Was Also Smoking Pot, And I Decided, Well, One Of Them's Got To Go. And So I Took A Pack Of Chesterfields And Took All The Chesterfields Out, Rolled Up 20 Big Fat Ones And Put It In There, And I Haven't Smoked A Cigarette Since Then.
