Love Is A Burning Thing And It

I Would Take Songs That I'd Loved As A Child And Redo Them In My Mind For The New Voice I Had, The Low Voice.

When I Get An Idea For A Song It Would Gel In My Mind For Weeks Or Months, And Then One Day Just Like That, Ill Write It.

Rick Rubin Said, Well, I Don't Know That We Will Sell Records. He Said, I Would Like You To Go With Me And Sit In My Living Room With A Guitar And Two Microphones And Just Sing To Your Heart's Content Everything You Ever Wanted To Record. I Said, That Sounds Good To Me. So I Did That. And Day After Day, Three Weeks, I Sang For Him.

My Mother Told Me To Keep On Singing, And That Kept Me Working Through The Cotton Fields. She Said God Has His Hand On You. You'll Be Singing For The World Someday.

I Love To Go To The Studio And Stay There 10 Or 12 Hours A Day. I Love It. What Is It? I Don't Know. It's Life.
