In My Insides, It Really Hurts If

I Gotta Go On Doin' It The Way I See It...i Got No Choice But To Take It Like I See It. I'm Here To Have A Party While I'm On This Earth...i'm Gettin' It Now, Today. I Don't Even Know Where I'm Gonna Be Twenty Years From Now, So I'm Just Gonna Keep On Rockin', Cause If I Start Saving Up Bits And Pieces Of Me...man, There Ain't Gonna Be Nothing Left For Janis.

When You Hold Somebody, You Gotta Hold Them Like It's The Last Minute Of Your Life.

All My Life I Just Wanted To Be A Beatnik. Meet All The Heavies, Get Stoned, Get Laid, Have A Good Time. That's All I Ever Wanted. Except I Knew I Had A Good Voice And I Could Always Get A Couple Of Beers Off Of It. All Of A Sudden Someone Threw Me In This Rock 'n' Roll Band. They Threw These Musicians At Me, Man, And The Sound Was Coming From Behind. The Bass Was Charging Me. And I Decided Then And There That That Was It. I Never Wanted To Do Anything Else. It Was Better Than It Had Been With Any Man, You Know. Maybe That's The Trouble.

I Read, I Painted, I Didn't Hate Niggers.

I Started Out To Be A Person On The Street, Just Like Everybody Else. I Didn't Start Out To Be A Singer. But I Got Sort Of Swept Up In This Singing Thing, And After I Got Involved In It It Got Really Important To Me If I Was Good Or Not.
