You Can't Hang A Man

I Started Learning My Lessons In Abbot Texas, Where I Was Born In 1933. My Sister Bobbie And I Were Raised By Our Grandparents [...] We Never Had Enough Money, And Bobbie And I Started Working At An Early Age To Help The Family Get By. That Hard Work Included Picking Cotton. [...] Picking Cotton Is Hard And Painful Work, And The Most Lasting Lesson I Learned In The Fields Was That I Didn't Want To Spend My Life Picking Cotton.

Sadly, There Are More Wild Horses In Holding Pens Than In The Wild.

A Lot Of Country Music Is Sad.

Anybody Can Be Unhappy. We Can All Be Hurt. You Don't Have To Be Poor To Need Something Or Somebody. Rednecks, Hippies, Misfits - We're All The Same. Gay Or Straight? So What? It Doesn't Matter To Me. We Have To Be Concerned About Other People, Regardless.

Those People Out There Like Good Music. They Don't Stop And Ask Themselves, 'is It Country Or Rock And Roll?' If They Like It, They Will Tell You.
