It's A Smile, It's A

As A Songwriter, You're Never Off - For Me, Anyway. There's A Certain Mentality Of People That Decide, "oh, We're Going To Try To Write Songs From This Time Of The Day To This Time Of The Day." Almost Treat It Like A Real Job. I Can't Do That. I've Never Been Able To Write Songs Like That. You Never Know When Something Creative Is Going To Hit You, Or Emotion Or Whatever. You Can Take It, And Turn It Into Something That Makes Somebody Feel Something. I Love That About My Job.

What Good Is It If A Guy Can Sing Real Good But He Sits On His Ass And Doesn't Make Anybody Feel Anything? I Can Connect With An Audience Every Time I Play. When I Sing, They Listen.

Music's Supposed To Come From The Heart. I Felt Like That If It Ever Got Mechanical, I Was Going To Back Away From It.

Being Famous Is Uncomfortable Because I Grew Up Very Simply. Everything Revolved Around Friends, Family, Church And Sports.

I Can Say That I Don't See Myself With The Foot On The Gas Pedal As Hard As It's Been Down For 16 Years.
